I think they are the best cars in the world.

I nearly spray my shorts any time I see one up close.

Boss 290 · 14-09-2006, 05:42 PM

But this is in Albury 45000 people. Have you seen its replacement the E63 AMG god even better. But it doesnt detract from the raw beauty and stealth of this car.

But that's the beauty of them mate. They look like any other Merc, but they'll rip the balls off just about any other street car that is foolish enough to have a go.

Thats half the appeal of them. People love the BMW M5 becasue it looks like a family sedan, with a top speed of 300km/h.

XR8-260 · 14-09-2006, 07:58 PM

I would prefer an XR6T... lol jj

Dont have to say only Joking.

With the money you saved, you could make you XR go very fast. Probably put a decent deposit on a house too.

Hit the "M" button in the M5, and all hell breaks loose !! ask Jeremy.

the quick pics i took dont really do it any justice and no it doesnt look like any other merc, and it has been said even if it does it has the balls to prove it isnt just any other merc

nb_351 · 14-09-2006, 08:42 PM

wouldnt buy one, but surely wouldnt say no to a free one...
my boss has a clk55 amg... the 2 door one...
blows off an xr6t with a few enhancements...
s**ts all over most things at half throttle...
apparently theyve got something like 100 computers in them... insane... imagine the schematic diagrams?

There is a hypo version of the SLR being released not in aust though called the Mercedes McLaren 722 but the E55 or the coming E63 will do me just fine but i think id rather an Audi RS6 Avant i just love german cars they really know how to build them there

McobraR · 14-09-2006, 09:30 PM

Today i just the new merc sedan that looks like an AU falcon from behind.... now THAT thing was noice. Other than the back, theres not real relation to it and the AU.

Those RS6 avants are mental, id have one of those anyday. Id also like an E55 and an E60 M5, but hey, im a bit far off it at this point, but ill get there one day

Do you mean the Merc CLS? I personally don't really like them.

FRDXR6 · 14-09-2006, 10:46 PM

AMG Merc's are just pure sex! So classy on the outside, pimping on the inside but like a wild beast once you open the throttle.

When i was living in London last year the guy in the apartment next door had an SL55 AMG Coupe, 5.5L supercharged 8. That use to rumble the building when he pulled down the driveway, my favourite car now.

Thats it with its back facing the camera, the Merc in the middle is a 4 door AMG of some sort forgot what kind though.

It looked the same as these, with white leather interior and electric hardtop :eclipsee_

I honestly couldn't decide between a SLR McLaren or an RS6 they are both insanely orgasmic cars and i would kill for both, Even an RS4 would be fantastic............Why can't i win the lotto

Yeh thats it, thought it wasnt that bad in real life. Front could use some work, but the side profile and rear end was noice. coupe like stance. theres my 2c worth

XRated · 15-09-2006, 01:20 AM

I'll take an E39 M5 or an RS4 myself

I think he means the back of the one on the left...
Anyway, I'd take the newer S65 over the S55, that would be insane.

I still think the E39 is the best looking 4 door sedan. I'd be happy enough with a 523i.

My g/f's dad is a motoring journo (new car everyweek) and he had an Audi S4 i went for a rap in that god it was awesome. He was supposed to have an Audi RS4 last week but the one he was to get got smashed up big time in syd by another journo, and seen as they are limited he never got another one instead an Audi A4 3L diesel (bloody good bar by the way) but i would have loved to go in the RS4. I wish they still made RS6's
