That Benz sounded like a fuking Jet taking off, it was sweet! I had no idea that they were that fast, I thought that the AMG Mods would weigh it down, but then again I guess at 469+hp, it really doesn't matter how much the car weighs!!
Anyways...
to the baller who can cough up enough cash for one of those...

E55 is BBBBBAAAAAADDDDDD!!!! 
The only issue Jesus has to face while racing that SVT Cobra is whether to sip on a Grande Caramel Machiatto or White Chocolate Mocha while wasting that SVT.
Peace.

ANYWAY, the difference is paying $76G for an AMG is common and somewhat acceptable. (It is an AMG for goodness sakes.) But paying ANYTHING above $30G for a Mustang (SVT or not) is flatout silly!!

u cant compare the 2 cars, they both ofer out of the league performanve for that they are
yea the benz cost twice as much, its a 4 door 5 seater, u can fit your whole fam in there, and plus its not a ford
even if the americans wanted to i dont think they can come up w/ a car that will be more popular or outsell the e55/rs6/m5 class of cars

What alot of domestic folks dont realize is that the M5, E55 and RS6 are as popular in Europe and Japan as they are here in the US. The same cant be said of the SVT Cobra and Corvette Z06; in Europe the like of SVT Cobras are slammed for not being refined and in Japan, they'd be knocked for their lack of quality.

Don't tell DarrinB that Ford owns Aston Martin and Jaguar...
I'd take a DB7 or a Vanquish over an e55AMG any day of the week. =)

Cars that are MADE in America have problems in general. Think about the CL for instance. I love my car, but my 90 camry has had less problems. Bad enough they make japanese cars in America. Why would you go out of your way to buy piss poor American car quality: Ford, GM.
