Default Destroyed by a SL65 AMG

This was the best ass kicking I've recieved.. just awesome.. i was coming out of the toll plaza going through the gears.. when I see this silver MB coming up fast on my right side.. when he came by with atleast 25-27 mph.... unbeliveable.. he kept waiting for me to catch up just to destroy me over and over agian..

The power was just amazing.. i think it's the SL65.. the 1 that says Bi-Turbo and has the big rims and nice exhaust..

I wonder if they know we enjoy getting killed by beautiful cars?

Not joking. I love seeing a "nice" car being driven the way (IMHO) it should be driven. To drive an SL65 like a granny is a waste (still IMHO)... when an SL500 would suffice.

But I know that when little piddly cars rev on S2000s, there has been a sentiment of "WTF?!" But maybe they wanted to see us run in the same way we like being thoroughly drubbed by a shiny 911TT?

Mercedes has been going crazy with their engines. The cars may weigh 2+ tons but they've got incredible power. Must be nice cruisers on the freeway!

I think he's just talking about Mercs in general... NOT 95% of the SL65s...

And around my area, that's probably right. There's less than 1:20 "fast" Mercedes that I see. Most are ML320s, CLK 320/350, E320, SLK 230/320, C-class whatevers.
