E55 high speed acceleration run

here is the video of a mercedes e55 amg accelerating close to top speed. if u download the movie it shows the car going up to higher speeds than if u just stream it. for kph conversion do: km/h / 1.6, and u'll get the mph equivalent.

takes about 12 seconds for this one to go from 100-150, and the c32 in the other thread takes about 20.

bone stock car guys, this is some impressive shit! looks like he has more left due to the fact that the speedo is still steadily gaining and gaining.

mercedes will derestrict their cars up to 186, but i have never seen what one can do after they take off the above mentioned limiter. supposedly, the e55's gear ratios will allow it to go up to 210 or 215.

:eek: The new E55 is that fast?!?!?

jesus mother of god, that's literally better in-speed acceleration than a V12 could do, that I have seen. Wow, the E55 now ties with my my all-time favorite, the 1995 BMW 850CSi.

BTW the exact top speed at 308 kph is equivalant to 191.3912 mph.

but that in-speed acceleration, jesus christ, its hell of alot faster than a V12 that I have seen.

The E55 is incredible. It manages it because it has the lowest drag from its body of any other saloon or estate car.

The shape of this car means, that when the new M5 is launched, with its V10, the E55 will still be faster in a line, despight being 3 years old.
