That was awesome. The supercharger had quite a whine to it, and the SLR made that E55 just look slow as a taurus. . I also love how excited the camera man was and how he couldnt stop shaking, it was also neat seeing the air brake in action.
I've seen the car up close and it was very impressive. Better in person definitely. Here is the official link: http://www.mercedes-benz.co.uk/pc/web_special_en/flash.html
Looks wicked fast, but who is the chucklehead pluging his ****ty real estate site? I'd rather have SL65.
Apparently you are not alone in your opinion, but I liked the sound a lot. It seems very mellow when you're not on it, but very aggressive, revvy-V8 sounding when you punch it. I thought it sounded great.
The power display is very impressive, but doing 120-130 on a crowded street is pretty lame. I hope this video comes back to haunt these clowns.
is that E55 in the video the older 349hp NA or the newer 479hp Supercharged 8? If its the newer E55, i'm impressed with the SLR
The SLR used in that video is this one from DC Motors: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2492067458&category=6315 Its sucks for the prospective buyer because the car was put to full power with only <50 miles on it.
