Default you're wrong there buddy...not all AMG's are supercharged! =P......

some are Supercharged (like the E55, SL55 and S55)...others are Twin-Turbocharged (SL65, CL65, and even S600), and MANY AMG's are even Naturally Aspirated (C55, CLK55, SLK55). AMG powers each platform differently ;P

Default From a stop you might have a chance for the first few hundred feet

- a stg2 will get *destroyed* on the highway, you'd be hard pressed to find a stg3 S4 that can hang with the V12TT powered benz's on the highway.

If its only 1000lbs heavier, but it has near 2x's the horsepower of you, how does that work in your favor?

Default you can also use the exhaust tip count method.....

4 tailpipes = V12TT
2 tailpipes = V12NA

this is for the S class of course!

Default Re: I drive these cars everyday. Calling BS. S600 everytime.

and you are calling BS to what exactly? The fact that I admit I got smoked? The fact that I suspect I pulled 1/2 car because he was 75 and missed the light change? or the fact that when it was over he had THOUROUGHLY blow my doors off?

just curious...

Maybe if you are looking at the old one. The new 600 is a 5.5TT, the 65AMG is a 6.0TT

The term walked is not door blowing. Maybe he kicked the **** out of me would be better.
