E55 vs. C55...check this out
So my friends come to me today and tell me about some punk kid that they met with a C55. He claims that he chipped it so he's putting down some 450hp. This, I know, is quite impossible. This kid, however, is talking alot of smack so I'm considering a race. I'm thinking I'll tell him that if he puts down $5,000 I'll race him. Winner take all. His car is sitting on some 19 or 20 inch Lorinsers and is dropped about an inch or two. I think the kids full of **** but then again I'm an a$$ hole and I love shutting people down. :v What do you guys think. Does he stand a chance?

Not unless you disable ESP and sit at the line spinning...
Straight up 1/4 mile drag race the C55 just doesn't stand a chance against the Kompressor cars...

I told him that I'd meet him at 8:30 tonight...he still hasnt called back . I'm going to get him sometime this week hopefully, but I'm going out of town this weekend. If I don't race him by then, I'll definitely do it next week or next weekend. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT I WILL GET IT ON FILM. This punk is going down as the biggest idiot in history. It's kinda like that kid who was talking up his M5 except this kid has a cooler car :p . Anyway, I'll make sure to get you guys some clips of the as soon as it happens!

As for the topic of this thread, I say: Kill him, tape it, and blow the 5K you'll win on mods.
And now on to a question I have...
Why do you have two E55s? Just a bit curious...

Thats what I said, I'll make him buy me rims! Haha. As for the 2 E55's, the black one is my Dad's. When he got his I drove it for a few months and our broker said a buyer backed out of an E55 and he would give it to us brand new for 70 flat. How could I have said no?!

I need a new one, mine already has about 10K miles on it. Oh well, 70K is not that bad a price for new center console... IMO.

Thats true I guess. Theres no car better than an E55. I'm surprised you've only got 10k on your E55. I've already got almost 6k and my Dad's pushing 20. Seems like you've still got some time to spare with that '03.

No way a NA engine picks up 50+ hp with a chip. Kleeman's C55 is a different story.

2000 W210 E55->2003 R230 SL500->2004 W211 E55->2007 997TT+2007 E63->2010 GLK350->2012 E550 4matic
How about getting 10 of us in and raise it to $50,000? Or winner takes his C55 perhaps?

a) It actually looks good (I've seen both)
b) it is comfortable open or closed (is yours?)
c) the cup holders rock
