Congrats Doody. I thought the S55 is using the same engine and supercharger as the SL55 for 500bhps and 71kg/m torque. Could you tell us more details about the S55 AMG beast? Cheers |

Steve: it is of no use for me to have a 2nd 550, unless we were trying to cut it to make a convertible. As such, I will send that car to you, and take his new torque-monster. He really should be thanking us for being such caring, outgoing friends. --Dan |

Doody you bastard! Share the love! This post is giving me an idea. I'll go ahead and take a picture of my "stable" this weekend, to make ya'll jealous. Beware - my 1994 Geo Prism, 1983 Fiat X1/9 (not running), 1970 CB350 (not running), and 1990 Lincoln Town Car might make you all drool! |

Dan, You are right, Doody is a dangerous man. As such we should save him from himself by taking care of these cars for him. You get first pick, i'll take sloppy seconds. This way we both save Doody from the trouble of having to maintain these things. ALWAYS glad to be of service :-) Enjoy the Drive, Steven R. Rochlin
