Hi picked up S55 Kompressor on Saturday

Wow .

The acceleration is really amazing, up with the super cars.

Compared to my old s class they have even firmed up the handling and given more weight and feel to the steering.

Thanks for the comments

Full fat it is 500bhp 700nm 0-62.5mph 4.8 secs, 0-125mph 16.3 secs and it feels it, even on a dry straight it will spin the wheels at 40 with the traction control on . Amazing a car this size will out drag a 996 Carrera

However they have just announced a Double Fat with Whipped Cream and Chocolate Chips .
S65AMG V12 biturbo 612bhp 1000nm torque 0-62.5 4.4 secs

Looks the same but with split rim 19 alloys, released to special order in December, that will give TVRs, 996 turbos etc a real fright.
