Mercedes-Benz AMG SL55, I have to see this beauty everyday becasue some high-roller at my work bought one.

 

[eclipse90gsxt]

Let me go out and buy one of those, thats pocket change.

 

[EvuLFleA]

Hmmmm, I'm currently looking for a house around that price range. I wonder if that thing has a shower in it?

 

[L2RTSiAWD]

Oh and if you sitting there thinking "That looks like a 2g parked next to it" "What a shit pile"



































Your right, It's my multi-colored, oil blowing, money-pit.

 

[CYCLONE]

Actually its 8 piston calipers in front, with either 14.5 or 15 inch rotors
can't remember. The way its set up is 2 piston per pad times
4 pads for each wheel.

Wow!! I'll have to look at that more closely tomorrow.

HAHAHAHA, 140K!!! No wonder the guy next to me in his AMG SL55 had such a pissed-off look on his face when he couldn't loose me on the Garden State Parkway this past weekend. He tried to beat me out of a toll booth, I stayed right at his back bumper and he tried to shake me from 65 to 130 with no luck. It's a damn fast car and looks and sounds awesome but MAN am I Glad I saved $135K including my mods...

 

[leet]

What's sad, is the DSM jumped out at me before the Benz did..

 

[awd4g63]

All the new 55s are around 500hp and that particular one should be about 120-125k.

 

[CYCLONE]

I can't wait till the AMG 65 models come out. Bi-turbo V12,
the euro version has 730 lbs-tq at around 3000rpm.

 

[awd4g63]

This is what 200k gets you. A friend of mine has this one, it's pretty bad ass

RENNtech CLK65:

The car itself (based off of the CLK55) is around $70,000 and has about 360hp. The car was sent to RENNtech and was fitted with a custom RENNtech body kit, electronics, new suspension, brakes, RENNtech wheels, and a custom supercharger kit. The car was also bored and stroked to a 6.5L. Now it's putting around 600rwhp. If you look on www.supercars.net, you can view his old Mercedes EV12.

Simply bad ass car

 

[CYCLONE]

The day I see an EV12 i'm steeling it...
That car is insane 200+ mph in a fully loaded sedan.
Can't wait till renntech or brabus build one of the new
generation V12.

The fellow that owns that CLK65 in the above pics I mentioned just got rid of it. He sold the CLK and got a new CL600. Twin-turbo V12 He also sent that off to RENNtech, but they just chipped it this time.

 

[Airpoppoff]

Wholy shat my pants

 

[Defiant]

Yeah, and the sorry bastards who pay that much for cars get stuck in the same traffic, run over the same potholes, slide off from the same ice, get door-dinged by the same assholes and depreciate even FASTER than we do.

It's gonna take a helluva jackpot before I consider paying that kind of money for a damned car. Hell, I still won't go $10K for a car.

 

[Eliminat0r]

140k jesus. hmm live in mercedes and roll around and get bitches or buy house hmm. decisions decisions :laugh:

 

[username]

nice car, but mercedes has never done a lot for me :\ i'd rather drop 140K on a 360 modena

damn straight

ive driven alot of mercedes (not ones like that though, ) and the owners all think they are hot sh!t.....honestly, im not impressed, anyone can buy one of those with enough money. Mercedes owners probably dont even know how to change the oil on their own car.

theyre nice cars, but nothing about them leaves me in awe


, saabs are even worse

 

[ldstang50]

i was at lime rock in ct one day for the michelin one lap of america. i watched a rentech mercedes (sl600????????) slay two hennessey venom 650r's, two lingenfelter corvettes, one mallet corvette a couple of saleen mustangs, dinan m3's and many more. that car was so mean

 

[jp171]

Meh. That car serves no purpose other than saying "my sh!t costs more than your sh!t."

If I were you, I'd just build your DSM to slay that beast and prove to him how much money he's wasted.

 

[iwon]

Now I need new pants.
