Default SL600 for breakfast

Doing 35-40 in a 55? What are you thinking, buddy? You could've bought a Metro and given that extra 130k to me.<p>Paul Roderick

Default you seem to like mercs

I would highly recommend the c32 amg (its gonna have a supercharger ).Most impressive is its "claimed" 0-60 time of 5.3seconds...and thats in TIPTRONIC too! From what I recall, it also has about 165kw or thereabouts.

Default Or you can wait for the S-55 soon to be released

Well, if they ever get the new S600 here. My father has been waiting for one for so long now I think he just gave up and decided to wait for the S-55.

Default thought it was a 3.6 litre?

As for liking the Mercedes, I won't deny it. My father has a W140 '96 S500 and just smashed up his '00 E430 Sport. He's already looking at replacing the 430 with an E55 or a new S500. I'll run the idea of waiting for an S600 or S55 AMG by him, though he might not want to wait. We Germans can be very impatient.<p>Paul Roderick

Default Renntech?!? I'm not made of money!

I'm just sick of people keeping their SLs under 35, those babies need to be opened up. My C43's due for a trip to Brabus, however.<p>Paul Roderick

I would rather the S-55 to be honest. Less front heavy -> probably better balanced. What say a CL55 AMG?
By the way...im pretty sure the next C32 AMG will be 3.2 Litres...and supercharged.
