    Hey all, I've been looking for a fun car, and have been interested in the Kleemann 55S8 (off of the C55 AMG), and I was curious, do you think, or know, if Kleemann's work would/could make the car more reliable than what Mercedes has presented in the last ten years?

    Thanks,
    Colin

    I don't think adding a Supercharger to a C-class would make it any more reliable than a stock C55, if anything by adding roughly 200 more horsepower would likely create more issues.

    That said a Kleemann K55S8 is an absolute sleeper rocket-ship!

    Agreed, but I would think that Kleemann may do a bit more than bolt on a supercharger for $100,000. Ha ha ha.

    ...and yes, a zero to sixty in 3.8 sec C-class is a rocket ship. :p

    Thanks,
    Colin
