RE: allroad versus E55 AMG
I've got a 2005 E500 as well as the 99 a4... I'm not going to lie to you, at 18 years old, I dont think anything has scared me as much as that car does. With right around 320hp to the wheels, and an AWD system like no other, you punch that thing and it freakin throws you back into that seat gripping that wheel. I've done 115 in it and given up. I cant push it to the 155 mark. Just cant. I've raced vetts and smoked em, I've raced civic's and smoked em, I've raced my buddys 05 Stang GT with borla's.. smoked it. I'm not saying this car is unbeatable, because believe me, That e55 amg would rip it a new hole, but those cars (E series) are one hell of a car. Props to anyone who can keep up with them.

Uhmm............. are you for real???? Stock E500's are rated at 302hp at the crank. That equates to, how do I put this...... NO WHERE NEAR 320 hp to the wheels. You'd need AT LEAST380 crank hp to put that much to the wheels of an automatic AWD car. Second, ANY Corvette made after 1991, along w/ your buddy's S197 GT, should have handed your car it's ***. Unless the drivers didn't know it was a race. Not trying to be a d!ck, that's just how it is. You got a nice car and all, but it is by no means a street-terror. LT1 Vette's are mid 13's. Your friend's GT is a mid-13 sec car. LS1 Vette's are high 12's-low 13's, LS2 Vettes are low-mid 12's. So what exactly do you have done to your car to outrun such fast cars might I ask???????
