the myth about the "rev limiter" for top speed is the ratings on the stock tires. usually the GXE have some cheap tires (low rated tires) on the steelie rims. the GLE have alloy rims with better tires, but still not performance oriented like the 16inch SE (higher rated).
Yeah, an extra 100 lbs is nothing for the Max's torque to carry around, I mean just look at when you add a passenger or 2, or 3 or 4, the Max can still move them with realitive ease, so whoever thinks that the GLE is slow because it has a little more heft just better not blink or they'll be looking at MAXIMA or M_A_X_I_M_A.
GLE is so luxury, so clean clean.
