Would the E55 be quicker with a 7 speed automatic similar to the new SLK55?
SLK55 dropped a couple of tenths from 0 to 60 and in the 1/4 with change to 7 speed even though power to weight ratio went down from previous model. Or does the E55 have so much torque it doesn't need a 7 speed, and extra shifts would just slow it down?
