The E55s had 469hp/516tq and they run around about 13 flat...tops('beginner' driver). They have the same 5.5L V8 as the SLK55 but its the blown version in the E class. I don't know about the SLK, but I know for sure those stock E55s can pull stock 03-04 Cobras, even with a carload of folks. There's even a 6.2L NA version they call the E 63. I use to work at the Benz dealership around here and got a chance to test drive every model Mercedes Benz makes... best in the world for sure.

I dunno about 13 FLAT...

I don't THINK it's 13.ooohs but I may be incorrect...

All though its irrelevant for people who can afford an AMG, they are still UNBELIEVABLY expensive to modify.
