[/////AMG]

Nice, but the rims :eek: how about that SL65 eh? 700+HP in like 2005 or something, not yet confirmed. :burnout:

CL600 was $198 000 when they had one at the dealership, I sat in it, tried convincing my mom to buy it, haha. Very nice car, interior is amazing, it had suede rooflining, massaging seats, I think it has 680 FT/LBS of Torque!!!!!! Perfect car for me. The pillarless doors are really cool when you close them... I don't know how to explain it.

According to Car and Driver .. CL 65 will be like near $ 180,000 and it will be about $120,000 pounds.... meaning it will be like $ 250,000 can .. :nut:

Crazy car ! then why buy SLR ? :dunno: (for 14 more horse power ! ha ha .. )

Because the SLR is much lighter :).

BTW - the V12 bi-turbos are under-rated. They've been seeing dyno numbers in the 480whp range stock :). Check out the dyno graph of a Renntech S600... the only change is ECU!

holy chit!!!!! :rofl:

[C4S]

I guess that is why .. M-B isworking on develop a new transmission .. 7 speed ? and BMW is working on a 7 speed SMG too .... :poosie: good new good new ..

but ..by then .. 500 HP seem like average la.. lol .. :rofl:


However.. I read M-B is also try to making some very high power engine ( 600 hp area ) WITHOUT supercharge and Turbo ! may be a 6.5 L direct inject engine ... but they need to sort out and borrow some technology stuff ...

Anyway .. Horsepower race again ! M-B .. Nissan . Crysler ... :nut:
