So leaving my buddys house in a ritzy neighborhood...saw a mbz swerving a bit up ahead so i kinda passed him not fast by any means but briskly you could say haha... a sharp white s550 is what it was as we got to a light...all tinted out i could only see a guy using facebook on his phone....Swerving explained...So we take off from the light i kinda went ahead of him (car is loud though) on the way to the next light before the freeway....as im slowing down for the light hes on my left behind me swerving into my lane coming up behind kinda quick like i pissed him off....of course he stares when he pulls up now...i stare and look ahead...i KNEW he was gonna try and smash past me getting on the freeway...light goes green...i keep pace with him for a few hundred feet until the right turn to get onto the freeway...im on the inside so i get about half car up on the turn and what do you know? He smashes on it as soon as hes straight...i did the same starting at the top of second...bang third...he gave up as i banged fourth...had about id say....5 cars when he gave up.....Post that on Facebook bitch! :rockon:

Good kill. What does your car run in the 1/4, as 550's are good for mid high 13's. I wouldn't mess with a '12 as they'll be sporting twins on a 4.6.

From a roll the S550 is pretty impressive, however the owner may have had the trans in C mode instead of S, which would make it lazy to downshift. The S has a 7 speed auto so once it's rolling it stays in its rev range under WOT. Not discounting your kill but it should've been closer.
