OK, my friend just bought a new 2001 benz e55....well he bought it a couple of months ago and just finish his brake in. i knew he'd kill me but i went along with it anyhow when he asked me to race. i just wanted to see how close i can come to those things. well, boy did i get burn by him. i was left pretty far behind him at 130 mph, then i just gave up.....afterward, i test drove his car and i must say it's awesome, wish i had that car....too bad 75 grand is way out of my league. those cars handles really nicely but one thing i dun like about it is that it doesn't look sporty at all...they went for lux all the way. i seriously think they should change the exterior and make it nicer.

Killer sedans. They need a manually transmission or at least a formula F1-type manual transmission similar to the Ferrari 360

Well... it should. The C320 costs nearly 40 grand. The more affordable C240 is a dog.

I could never understand that logic.
