I have had my E55 for almost three years now and I can absolutely gaurantee you that it is nothing like my AC cobra with 450 blown HP on a 2500 lb car. Even in dyno mode the E55 is no where as spooky as the ace. I could spin the cobra into a parking space sideways (after a few years of experience that is). It is all about respecting the power and knowing when and how to use it.

you think im retarded or something? ofcourse i turn the Traction control off, you dont need a manual for that either. just that this car still feels like its not completely off when whipping it because when you feather the pedal it catches traction or feels like it cuts some power in order to catch traction. this happens when you release the throttle a little bit so that you dont over do it. thats when it catches.
