RE: ---

I chose the E55 because I like the safety of a warranty and the millions of dollars that MB used to make sure the engine doesn't blow up.

Plus really do you need to go any faster? Well on second thought, nevermind.

I like the EV12 7.3 alot.
It's huge...7.3liters[:0]! It has tons of power and torque, goes as fast as you would ever want to go (330km/h limited on sedan because of tires, 320km/h on t-modell), has as a result broken the world record in 1996, and is one of the most exclusive cars you could ever own...

P.s. I'd go for the wagon[:p][:I][8D]

greets,

matteus

RE: ---

There is a reason to be that fast, so when the next M5 comes out you'll still be a step ahead with a 4 year old car. The new E V12 dosn't have such a great engine, they just blow it, if you took the turbos off, it'd be a lot weaker than the old 7.3. I wonder what the 7.3 would be like with the same set of turbos, all that displacement, some aftermarket loonies have probably tried it, i'd guess it'd make 700 horse.

I wonder how you could get such a car through a smog test.... Hey, the Bugatti Veyron makes 1200 hp, limited to "only" 1001, because the shaft can't take any more, now THAT makes me sick.

I'd take a Brabus EV12 in a wagon!
