Default another E55 AMG kill

I was heading down the 405fwy with open cutouts blaring when I see this car behind me tailgating me for like five miles, I slow down so he can pull around me but he doesn’t and then I speed up again but he stays right behind me, he doesn’t even pull up besides me or anything. I start to get little pissed then pass the cars in front of me and then get back into the fast lane, and then I see the car is still following me! As I get into the fast lane the car then bolts it right pass me and I then punch it my self, (he gets a good jump on me), He starts pulling away at first while I’m WOT and I’m like WTF! But then I start to stop his advance and slowly pull him in at only what seem to be 3MPH! I then finally pass him up and now I’m in front. I was impressed! We both slow down due to the cars coming up, I start waiving by by out my window due to him being a d!ck earlier, We get pass the cars in front and go again, he doesn’t try to line them up but tries instead to get the jump by punching it again from what was about even with my rear bumper, but I was more ready this time and punched it to, I put about two car’s on him by the time we shut down. I give him the thumbs up and turn off on my exit. BTW I raced one of these before but this one was faster! Did they up the HP on these?

Thanx, I'm not really sure what AMG model it was now, I found out they have a E55AMG and a CL55AMG, all I really remember was 55AMG, I'll have to look at some picture's to tell, All I can say is It was really fast and probably all stock! Maybe time for a ZO6 upgade in the future but havnt decided as of yet.

nice Job!

they run low 12s stock. I've seen them run a constant 12.1s-12.4s at the track; according to the owner, it's stock.
