Default Mercedes S600 1/4

i just got done watching Motor Trend, and the new twin turbo S600 runs 12.8 in the 1/4 on street tires. that's rediculous for a heavy as beast like that. i believe they said it also has 495hp/560tq. (if i remember correctly). it also does 0-60 in 4.5, and has a sport suspension switch. safety features include if it senses a crash in your future, it automatically does things such as move the seats back, close the sunroof and change airbag inflation speed.

$126,000 and that puppy's yours

Although the Mercedes is quick in the 1/4. The Ferrari and the Porsche are far more well rounded sports cars. I would take the 360.

oh yeah, don't get me wrong. They're two totaly different cars. Just because the Merc posts similar 1/4 mile times doesn't make it near the sports car of the other two. Just as an all around car I'd pick the Merc up before the 360.

I watched that episode yesterday too and I bragged about that car a few times last night. who would have thought an ultimate luxury machine that weighs almost 3 tons was running 12's stock. I'll take one in silver, please.
