2004 E55 AMG Silver/Black - stock (at the moment)
Do you like to "bully" little brother?
I can't believe what happened to me yesterday afternoon. I hope the owner of the 2003+ E55 AMG is reading this!!!
F#CK#N SHOWOFF!!!!
I was on hwy 280 (Los Altos Hills area) going North SF, minding my own business - doing 75mph. Then some f#cken young asian kid (E55 tectite color - stock) with his buddy and girlfriend pulls up next to my C36 (as always, everytime some punk wants to race, I'm never behind the wheel of my E55). Anyway the kid started to bully me...knowing my little C36 had no chance to even keep up. So he would speed up then wait until I catch up, then he'd speed up again and wait till I catch-up. On third run, he finally looked at me and gave me thumbs down and he floored it.
My screenname is "AMG BULLY" but I know better who to pick on...
Sorry...just venting....

Just so you know, Im half asian/half Canadian. So answer is NO, I'm not racist, if thats what you're trying to imply. Just want to point out his nationality and age (young/old). I'm young guy as well (just more mature than other young guys), maybe thats why this young guy was f@cking with me..."I have a bada$$ car, let me f#ck with this loser!" attitude.

Wow, I am just stunned and on behalf of all E55 guys, I offer a humble apology.
I know most guys on here would never taunt another fellow AMG like that and the "thumbs down" just makes me violent.
It's was just some punk driving daddy's car for sure.

You're too kind! Thank you!
I only posted this message because I was so pissed off last night. So I'm hoping the S.O.B reads my message.
I also couldn't believe a fellow AMG would bully his younger brother (so to speak). I can't say if its his dad's car but what I can say, have more respect to your your yonger brother. I'm guilty of bullying (how can you not when you're behind an E55) but same time, I go for the big guns with the same price range, Porsches, Ferraris, M5s, etc...

Not that it's relevant... but why did you even want to play? 
I once drove my E and someone w/ a 60's camaro (just like the one in fast & furious) provoked a race.... I stepped on my gas and realized that it must've been heavily modded as it dusted me as if I were standing still.
He slowed down, laughed and asked for another one... I didn't bother and just gave him a thumbs up. Why wasted my gas for something I know not in the same class? Same thing when a civic or integra tried to race me...
BTW, C36 is not younger brother... it's an uncle to E55

i got the thumbs down yesterday from a goofball in a riced out honda civic. apparently he thought i was racing simply because he had to floor it and bang every gear to keep up. the funny thing was that i was only accelerating at 1/4-1/3 throttle at the most and when i finally realized that HE was racing i was already doing 55 in a 45 and eased up. as soon as he passed me he gave me the thumbs down as if to brag how he just blew me away. at the next stop light he was grinning from ear to ear. i got a good enough laugh AT him to not bother embarrasing him any further in front of his girlfriend in the passenger seat.
...so don't let it bother you, just laugh and point and they'll feel stupid about it.

I'm just disappointed...to know (first time I experienced this) there are AMG drivers who disrespect other AMG owners - especially the underdog. I can understand if I'm driving an SLR, but a C36 vs. E55... Aside from getting a thumbs down from the SOB, the three of them looked at me laughing their a$$ off as he pulled away.
In regards to "why were your trying to play/race". Believe me, I did not want to play/race an E55 with my C36! I own a 2004 E55 as well, so I'd be pretty st#pid to even try to race the guy. As I stated, the guy was bullying me.

There will be even more people w/o a class who can buy E55.... and expect to see behavior like this... heck, there are quite a lot of people w/o a class who buy expensive car....
For those who come to Fletcher Jones of Fremont may have seen a black W221 S55 with only dual exhaust
I don't recall a W221 produces 55 engine... LOL That's what I call money can buy cars but not class.

this rant is a bit disingenuous. the raison detre of MBWorld is to glamorize kills
via street race. i killed this....i smoked that....i walked away from this. the
glory of having pseudo fast cars is to beat someone else....show off....and
pander to one's own ego, pure and simple.

yeah the thumbs down is just disrespect, pure and simple. Even if i smoked a loser in a *****box im not gonna give him the thumbs down, thats like saying "you cant afford a car faster than mine" sorta thing. Rude.
About playing with the 55, i have an E320 W124 that goes well for what it is, and even if faster cars line me up, i just like to see how it will stack up, its still fun if you dont expect to win!
