E55 vs. CLS55
I raced a E55 out on the Autobahn last week with my Cls55 and blew it off the road.
My CLS is modded so would the E win if I was stock? Those E's are super fast and they look awesome, the guy in the E was all cool and after the race we went to lunch and talked about each others cars.

Right now im in Germany. My brother lives in Berlin so I go there every summer and decided to bring my Cls with me as it has never seen the Autobahn before and to also get it modded by MKB. All I can say about the autobahn is WOW
- have not seen one cop so far so its all good. South Florida definitely need an Autobahn!! That would be a great focal point!

I could drive all day but getting14 mpg autobahn I have to stop to get gas
. By the way, I cant believe how much more gas costs here than in the US!
But I think you get more for your money over here

How cool is that to drive your own CLS on the Autobahn, we just got back from Euro delivery on our 55, I posted all about it on the CLS board.

Just a pic of the gas pump, that will be $130 for a tank please

And its just odd too... Even if I had 400 million bucks just laying about, I'd still probably just rent or sample one of the many OTHER AMG vehicles while I was there. Hell, I'd be in good with the boys at AMG and they'd let me borrow em'... and they'd have 65 and Kleemann badges on them, not "55".
Just one of the odder things I've heard of... to each his own...
but you MUST TAKE A PIC OF YOUR CAR with US plates on it on the Autobahn or near a freeway sign or something! Classic! With all of these fake German plates on cars here in the US, its about time someone put a US plate on a car in Germany! Hehe...

Just to let you guys know its my brother who is lllooooaaaaaddddeeedddd not me. The reason i brought my car was because I love my car and I had an easy way of transporting it(still costs a whole lotta money). I will get some pics of my baby on the autobahn, but I cant post them untill I get home.-I dont have my digital camera,I only have a non-digital one.
