E55 Vs E63.....Video!!!

As you guys know from some dyno graphs i posted below that my car is not at its best form..

to refresh you my car is modified by kleeman K2 + TB.

at the light the E63 jumped first , i think its because he has a better grip stock brand new tires....but then...the video will say a million words.

The E63 slowed down cuz of the vehicle in front of it....from the looks. Damn though..it pulled off pretty hard from the start. Great video..but still...we need a straight 1/4 mile one to know the real deal.

Well we're getting closer.

Thanks for the video!!

I'm feeling better that we'll get a stock E55 v E63 video real soon.

Great job!!

Dude, my E55 is completely stock. I test drove the E63 a few days ago and off the line, the E63 does NOT pull hard until it gets to 80+! And with simple modification like K2/R2/Evo2, the E63 will bite the DUST!

I cant wait to race the E63. Bring it!

with all respect to the great E63, I didn't say I won or lost, you can tell that we didn't hit the gas at the same time. I raced this car on three consecutive lights and that was the only video my little brother could record. the third run was the best it was from a rolling start and I pulled off till I hit 220kph at that time his front bumper was at my tail light. there are a lot of E63 around. I gave my little brother an intensive imate JASJAR training

E63 is faster if I was stock...don't get me wrong but I love all AMG cars.
Peace

I drove it as well and completely disagree.....the E63 pulls hard well before 80mph.

The car has a 7spd tranny and is down 51lbs ft of torque and up 38hp.

Don't make it sound like there is now a mouse running in a wheel underneath the hood.

thanks for the vids...


K2 vs E63 is really unfair.. since most of the concern is about stock vs stock.

We are all trying to explain why would AMG build a slower replacement car?

Nevertheless.... K2 vs E63 on a long stretch highway would be a good video to watch.


I'm planning to buy an E55 next few months and definately I will have alteast Stage1, just to stay in the game for a few years to come.

Anyhow the 55 is far from wack, I love AMG and Mercedes to the fullest. I just cant stand all this is the 63 faster, no it is it not the 55 has more torque and you can not mod it, blah, blah, blah speculation. Basically everyine is an expert but has no fact! I really do want to know FACT, is that TOO much to ask???

Bottom line is that I do not own either so who really cares what I say? I drive a Lexus.......sike I am not that corny!

He didn't say literary scholarship, he said literary scholar... LOL. With your previous ignorant comment and this childish reply, we can all see that we are dealing with a member of Mensa.

The E63 is no dog getting to 80, but compared to the E55 it isn't as fast or as exciting. The new 63 might be down 51 tq, but it produces it much higher than the E55 does (512ftlbs @ 2000rpm vs. 461 @ 4000+rpm)

The E63 has a lot of potential. There is little doubt that it will have tremendous thrust up to 100mph, but I have little confidence in that car above 100mph simply because of its gearing. I am certain it will match, if not beat, a stock E55 up to 100mph.

Thumbs down

Looks like the guy in the E55 doesn't know how to race and the E63 had to slow for the truck in it's lane...wonder why there was no rematch, lol...

E63 is fast, but you can see how late the guy in the E55 was off the line.

The video evidence is totally inconclusive. It looks like the E63 is able to pass the truck, however, it appears that there might be another car in his lane. Opinion value of video = zero! Must see a rematch

HI!

What happened to wanting to be a pioneer??? There are a few 63's out there, and nobody's been to a track to see what it does??? If I had a 63, I would take it from the dealer to the track because the suspense would be killing me. I know that some will point out the break-in period, but in this case, to be the first one, I would screw it.
