Thanks for the compliment on our E55's. Don't feel like a dork. Afterall, we're all AMG bred.

If you don't want to feel like a dork then get KLEEMANN your car will be faster and you'll be much cooler!

Sorry for the hijack, but is a Kleemann'ed CLK55 or E55 really quicker than a W211?

I'm a relatively new owner of an E55, and am toying with the idea of the upgrade. If it is truly quicker than the W211, that would be very impressive!

I believe it will be quicker since the curb weight on the W210 is around 3800lbs and the new W211 is around 4200lbs.

I'm guessing you have a W210 E55 correct? If so do it! It's pretty fast to say the least. Even better when you do these 4 other upgrades like headers/downpipes, LSD, cams and ECU.

Ummm... is that because:

a) the engine doesn't even want to start?

or:

b) the car is now a garage ornament?

or:

c) both of the above?


j/k only.

Hey Jon

Sorry not exactly sure but i'm guessing it weighs maybe 20-30lbs?? Maybe Kleemann or evosport can chime in and give us the exact weight.
