'06 E55, '05 SLK55, a few others
Shouldn't be much of a race. Got to play with one on the way to the last Rosebowl meet in the GF's SLK55. Never ran from a stop, but getting out of traffic he gets a big jump and the SLK reeled him in slowly until I got out of it at 100+.

I love the DB styling ,noise and "life is good " feeling when driving it.
Traded M5 for it and miss that car dearly ,it would just chew the Aston to pieces.
I'm a little disappointed with the chassis flex,expected the car to be more solid,in the meantime I truly enjoy myself,especially with the knowledge that the car goes back to my dealer at the end of Summer(pre trade for 599).
