Insane E55 Acceleration

OMFG!! It that the new NASA shuttle? That thing is like a hurricane it just doesn't stop. Even with high HP manual cars you shift and even if you're fast but with this it's like a freight train. This is why I got the E55, I was going for the E63 but there is no E63 that does this. After all the 55k motor (although very different) is the same foundation as the SLR, and that's saying something.

VRP Sport Airfilters
VRP Overdrive Crank Pulley
VRP ECU tune
VRP 80mm Throttle Body Kit
VRP Cat-back Exhaust
VRP Long Tube Headers
VRP Cooling Upgrade Kit
VRP Race Cams
VRP Carbon Airbox

This is what VRUS told me a long time ago.

That was the white car of death. Think a physically challenged guy (forgive, trying my best on being PC) was modding it. Super nice guy that deserves that monster beast. How cool is that? You can't walk but through AMG, you CAN fly.

Actually that one makes 570whp read the description. It's not 700hp as per the VRP700 name.

The last couple of days I have been stomping the gas pedal and I am blown away again at how fast this car hauls! My car is completely stock and I can only dream of what it would be like modded, but it definitely deserves the name "Beast."

570whp is very close to 700crank hp

Add 22% drive loss and that's why they call it the 700kit

I wouldn't necessarily say that. Of course a stock E63 isn't going to run like a modified E55. But add money and sure it will. Absolutely. You can add money to just about any ride and produce a land missile. My neighbors son has a 10 second Honda Civic. It's wicked fast.

Good video...awesome power.

In this case, you can do other EV12 engine in the body of 63 but that will cost a lot....

A stock E63 is not going run like a stock E55 never mind a modified one

I've always loved that exhaust note coming out of that car. IMO if not the best sounding E55 it's in the top 3,

Did you read the post from above? He was comparing a stock E63 to a modded 55 and that is the reason for my statement. Now if you're talking about modified then you may be able to compare a modified SC63 vs a modified 55

Well, if you're going to bring up modified 55's, then you surely should know the implications that a modified 63 is going to be brought up as well. But we already knew from the start a stock e63 would have no bearing on modded 55's.

When you get a chance please read post 13, that's where the modded 55 comment originated from

well, you need to reread post 13 again yourself because on post 15 you pretty much just repeated what lycan said. you even quoted the guy. so why not? i repeated it again just for consistency.

p.s. you seem like the kind of person who always needs to have the last comment, so i'll give it to you. toodles.

My point was that a stock 63 is not going to run like a stock 55 period so why would he even mention/compare a stock63 & a modded 55??? then you started with the weistec comment???? Maybe we just read the same post two different ways??? Oh well time to move on
