Given the intoduction at the Geneva show of the CL 65, I bet we see the E55's horsepower raised back to 493, since it will now be lower than MB's Flagship Coupe (and Sedan next)

I always found it hard to believe that they lost 24 hp as a result of the length of the exhaust...

I agree! If the length of E55's exhaust resists power then the S55 & CL55 would suffer the same effect. I would assume their exhaust is longer.

I don't understand your comment. Not that this will effect me buying one, but with all the noise around it, I thought it might make sense.
