5.0 V8
302 hp at 5,600 rpm's
339 tq from 2,700 rpm's - 4,250 rpm's

7 speed auto!

Pimpin on 18's in all four corners!

I was teaching a class tonight at our tech center. I was on the phone with one of our T/A's earlier today and he informed me I'd have to "move" the car out of the way for the class.

:D <--- me

So, got there early and drove around the parking lot. Couldn't take it out on the road though.

I soooooo want one!

CLS55 AMG will have a 469 hp and 516 tq engine

My crappy build quality doesn't. [img]redface.gif[/img]


And wow, 18's on all four corners. Something tells me when I go into the city sometime in the future I'm going to see these going around. 7-speed is a NICE touch. :D

Now...that AMG... [img]graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img]

WTF is the deal with more and more gears in the trannys? Before we know it, passenger cars are gonna have two speed rear ends.

Say WickEdSix, I've always been curious. Is that 13.3 et NA?

Sorry James don't mean to intrude. That's a nice KIA though. j/k

Yeah, the overhaul cost on one of those 7-speeds will be soooo cheap. What is it anyway, a Z-F?
