*** a merc!
The next generation 63 cars (07+) with just an exhaust would hand you your ***. I'm just saying, you know for the record and junk. You can pick one up for pretty close to what your car costs as well. Again, just for the record. lol

6.2 NA V8 507HP & 465 ft-lbs. Boy do they scream when you open up the exhaust.

And this is a GM forum, hence the firebird I own. I just didn't care for your "sloth" comment.

well we can agree to disagree then. The 63's 07+ are still close to $30k pushing upwards of 70-100k miles. Thats $10k higher than I paid for my G8 with 20k miles. I lined up an 08 C63 at the track a couple months back and consistently put him away. He was running 12.2's @ 116 all night....for the record

And yea they sound great. I just prefer LSx power to german power any day.

not really. Just enthused about LS powered cars that's all. Has nothing to do with respect and more about preference in my eyes. Can I not cheer for my ******* team? This ******* board blows

Hard to argue with that, but the only exotic's exhaust note I like is the CGT, and I've heard pretty much all of them at cars and coffee. I just love the freaking 6.2 AMG especially the C63's exhaust note, IMHO it's perfection.

We are enthusiast also. And some of us have our prefference as well. But you can't keep posting a vid of a modded Z killing a stock E55 with out someone saying something. That's what makes you delusional.

Race a modded E55 and compare power to power. That Z is fast for sure. And props to the op on his ride. But tell his friend to change the front HE and IC pump and see what a small cooling mod will do.

Heat is our biggest problem and back to back runs kill the E. simple cooling mods will keep the power consistant.
