Wagon Drag Race: Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG vs. E55 AMG



This week’s AMG Monday Morning Wake-Up Call footage comes from the 2012 WannaGOFAST Georgia Half-Mile Shootout.

I enjoyed running against him and it was cool having too wagons at one of these events.

After talking to him, I think his best mph was 127-128. My best mph was in the 137-138 area.

Looking forward to doing it again this year

My car had a tune, but that was it. The E55 was rated at 469hp from the factory and the E63 at 507hp or a difference of 38hp.

The BIP E55 tune yielded 32rwhp which would make the cars pretty close on paper.
