HOly SH$t - Tagged with an E55 amg!

[Corrado1.8T]

This freakin car is nutz. I was crusining down glenmore by the auto mall on my bike yestarday, when this silver E55 amg sedan comes hauling ass out of the merge lane onto glenmore east. I was in the right lane so i courteously move over to let him in. He passes me before i actually realize what it was. So i drop a gear and quickly catch up. Give the car a good look, pull up to the window, the guys maybe 35. The guy looks at me and punches it. Holy shit that car f$%ken moves. I give the throtle a good rip hit 4th gear and the guy was still going. I stay beside him to scope the car a little more, i think we hit the 200's before the lights at ogden road. Guy was super cool gave me the thumbs up, then went back playing with his laptop!

By far the fastest car i have ever had a chance to tag along with, especially with a 80km rolling start.
That car is a definatly worth its stout. Would give my cousins carrera4 a lashing, not to mention any 600cc street bikes.

:thumbsup:

Doubtful, the '03 has 469 hp and 516 lbs/ft of torque, quarter mile comes up at mid 12's and 60mph in 4.6 sec.
