E55 Vs E63
You guys truely amaze. Where on earth did you get a 4.7 to 60? What happen? The driver was clearly asleep.
I do not understand it how people can make such claims when we have members here running flat 12s (stock) through the 1/4. (12.0) Whereas I've seen times for the Vette at 11.6 and 12.1, respectively.
BoBocanda, even with the current E55, I'm pretty sure the outcome of the race will depend on the driver.
And as for the E63-- get real, that thing should annihilate the new Z06.
Or maybe I'm just one of the few who actually thinks AMG can best anything.
Clearly, we can remember the many doubts people had about this E55.
What in the hell happened to you all's passion?
Your W211 E55s are freaking monsters as is......FOR SH*TS SAKE.........they WILL NOT TAKE A STEP BACK with the E63

LET BMW LOVERS QUESTION THE AMGS...NOT THE G*D DAMN MERCEDES OWNERS

Being a previous '03 owner, I know the vehicles abilities, and it's just shy of the new Z06. Infact, in the most recent C&D (or whichever mag), the Z06 clocked a time of 12.1 through the 1/4 mile.
I have seen time slips for the E55 at 12 flat! I will post both links later in the day when I have time to look for them.
Oh, and for the challenged, 12 flat beats a 12.1

First of all the Z06 motor is underrated:

Hmm? I think you have a really good point there. We'll have to wait and see but I'm sure AMG has a few tricks up their sleeve!

The Best of Mercedes & AMG

............the Z06 is an awesome piece of American history. I just want to make a point that the E63 has no released specs yet...........and a lot of people are counting it out before it has a chance to prove itself.
P.S...................did not mean to affend you with my
Any person with a logo like that is awesome in my book
And as for the E63-- get real, that thing should annihilate the new Z06.
WHAT IN THE HELL PEOPLE
COME TO TEXAS............THERE ARE PLENTY OF "FAIR WEATHER" COWBOY FOOTBALL FANS HERE................MAYBE YOU ALL CAN GET TOGETHER AND BASH THE E63 WHILE YOU'RE AT IT

We can learn alot from history, as is why we teach it to our kids, for history is bound to repeat itself.
YOU nor anyone else knows the weight of the E63.............PERIOD..............that's my FUC#ing point to my post!
Trade in your C230 and buy an AMG..............maybe you would defend it then.
Has anyone heard of a C63? The whole "C63 would be faster than and E63" puzzled me too. I asked Rob Allen about it at one of the AMG challenge events and his response was basically "Who said the 63 is going in the C?"
I can't believe that people are still questioning this... The 500hp 6.2 liter V8 will NOT go in the C-class Benz. Max power output will be 425ish hp and that will most likely come from a DOHC version of the 5.4 liter V8...

I would love to own an AMG if i could afford one, unfortunutely not all of us can.
This whole defending what you drive thing is stupid. Just love what you drive, who cares if there are cars faster than yours...
Believe it, it will be 510hp in a limited production car. Mostly old news as the spy photos already out. BMW M5 owners already in denial.
