On my way home from work tonight some dude in a CLS55 AMG gunned it right next to me. There was traffic and normally I dont race on the street so I didnt run him but I was curious what the outcome might be. I read up on them and they have 470HP and 500+TQ and they weigh in at just over 4k lbs. I have intake and cat-back. From what I know AMGs run pretty strong on the freeway runs, I think he would of beat me. What do you guys think?

As I was pulling hard on this same exact car you speak of, i look over and it was a woman driving. I was surprised, but the car runs strong, was just no match for my car and mods.

His gearing is horrible. But if you're stock, he'll humble you. I've heard of a couple of guys who have played with these and they are incredible. They just leave the traction control on and blow you away. Very serious cars IMO. But for over 130K, they should be.

Just make good and sure you don't mess with a 65 series. They will waste a modded Cobra in a hurry. Twin turbos...700 hp.
