But someone i know who id drive both said that to me, so i i though that was the best way to describe it. The main problem in these cars is that you dont really know how fast youre going. My daily driver is a small diesel fiat, then you take one of these on the highway, at night when theres no traffic and you hit the limiter before you even know youre doing 250kph...so amazingly quiet and smooth that you reach twice the legal speed limit before you even know it |
My dad had a silver '04 SL 55 AMG. I have never felt more torque in my life with that thing, even compared to the '07 Zo6 Vette he owns now (much faster 0-60 though in the Vette). That supercharged engine in the 55 was a beast. Haven't driven the naturally aspirated 63 to compare though. As for the 65, a guy at my gym has one. It's the ultimate monster SL but I can't imagine anything more Torquey than the 55. For regualar city/ bumper to bumper traffic driving, it's borderline dangerous, at least here in Miami. (I'd still take it in a heartbeat of course )
