Cro Flower Power Lifetime Members 6,114 Member For: 22y 6m 23d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 03/06/05 12:23 AM Share Posted 03/06/05 12:23 AM Was at the set of lights today in one of the two lanes that merge into one, and next to me pulls up this Merc. Now I really don't know what type of Merc it was, it had 17" (or 18") AMG rims, 6pot AMG calipers, a V6 badge on its side, and it was a two door. I'm told by a Mercedes dealer it's a 240kw supercharged monster, but I don't believe it because he would have hosed me.He looked, I looked lights went green and we both took off. I was ahead of him by half a car length, and it stayed that way till I hit 110 (100 zone). He then flew straight past me when I backed off engine/exhaust screaming (sounded good) and all.So does anyone know what this thing was?

I'm pretty sure it is the most powerful of the V6 engines.

He has probably posted a thread on a Merc forum somewhere telling how the XR6 had him until 110km but then flew past him........
