This unit picked up in September last year replaces a 2012 Mercedes Coupe 350. 2013 Chrysler 300 SRT8, 6.4L Hemi V8. 0-100 4.4sec (timed on this one so far) 1/4 mile not tested yet.

Keep in mind this run from 11 to 13 where built under the direction of merc. The chassis is the E Class piece. Not a single rattle, shake, vibration can be heard at any speed. I was sceptical at first coming over from merc but I notice no difference in ride quality. Unless of course its put is 'sport' or 'track' mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds manic when I want and very silent when I want. I change cars every 12 months for the last 5 years and this one will be the first I stick with for a couple of years.

My wife loves them but I have always thought they were poorly built.The old shape were not great in terms of build quality. However the new shape is miles ahead of the old one. Same can be said for the new Jeep GC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
