it started as i was leaving the Palisades center mall. Â*As i was on my way around the mall towards the rt 303 S exit, i stopped at a light next to a mercedes. i didnt think anything of it, i just noticed the two older guys in the car staring at me. Â*When it went green, they got off quick, i tried to follow but traction was non-existant with all the road salt. i caught them right at the exit of the lot onto rt 303. they took off once again and i didnt even bother this time, i just assumed they were pricks. Â* About 1/2 a mile down 303, i passed them in the left lane, making sure they'd get a good look at my car. haha. Thats when i also noticed the badging on the benz...AMG E55. Â*i was about 10-15 car lengths in front of them when i looked in my rearveiw to see the benz headlights flying up in the right lane, I dropped it 3rd and punched it,(should have went to second since i was only around 50mph, but traction would have sucked) Â*anyway, right after i punched it, i caught the benz from passing me and i had him with his nose at my pass door. I went to about 4500rpms, and now i was about 2-3 car lengths in front of him. Â*I shifted to 4th and that broke my tires loose a little, I went WOT again and continued to pull on him hard. i kept on it until about 105mph, Â*by then i was a good 6-7 car lengths in front. Â*I slowed down to about the speed limit and he pulled next to me. Â*I looked over and he smiled and nodded at me, I gave a little wave back. Â*After that he backed off and stayed behind me at a distance for the rest of the way down RT303.

It was the newer style E55 with the 5.5L intercooled Kompressor engine that puts out 469hp. 0-60 in around 5 seconds flat. Its the fastest sedan in the history of mercedes, puttting down a 1/4 mile ET of 12.89 stock. Now thats a sick benz.
