Huh? based on what experience? The only people I know that have ever claimed an E63 is faster is salesman trying to sell them. Even AMG acknowledges that the E55 is quicker in a straight line.

depends, from a roll you should pick the lowest possible gear yourself and let the car shift up. from a dig put it in 1st and let it shift up. leave it in s though. when are you planning on doing this?

I usually like stiffer suspension settings since I like road racing and taking turns. But for straight line racing and no turning, you want the fastest weight transfer. So technically, we want the front to be as soft as possible and the rear to be as stiff as possible. It appears for our airmatic and from people's experience, this equate to the softest suspension setting for our car to help with weight transfer for planting the power to the rear tires.
