E55 Vs S600
Hey guys new to the forum,
I did some searching for this on the site and just can't seem to find it anywhere. In a match head to head, E55 vs S600, what would win as an overall better car? (Both are stock 2004).
MB claim the E55 does a 0-60 in 4.5 while the S600 does it in 4.6. Is this true?

The reason I ask is I have a S600 and a friend just got an E55.
BTW, BMW is behind the times and behind the technology they had a good thing going and then they just destroy it with I-Drive and the new look. Give me a 2001 740IL or M5 over the new 2005 M5 or 2004 745 any day.

Old Guy Car Versus Young Guy Car
The S600 is for old guys who want to embarras young guys in Camaros and the E55 is for younger guys who want to embarras poorer guys in their Camaros. Neither S600 nor E55 would embarras the other.

The S and E really do appeal to different groups, and by and large you'll find that age difference distinguishes the 2 groups.
Despite both being 4 door sedans, the 2 cars drive differently, and the E55's primary weakness (unwieldiness) is even more problematic in the S600. On the other hand, if you need to make an "S statement", the S600 makes that statement loud and clear.

It was posted a few months ago about a husband/wife that had an E55 and an S600. He drove the E55 and she drove the S600. During acceleration grudge runs he posted that she would barely edge him out every time to 60-70mph. They did this multiple times with the S600 winning every time. I am sure with manufacturer tolerances that it is truly too close to call.
