It's a "track", not a truck ;)

very nice video, the E55 is still impressive :!:

Cool video, always fun with comparisons plus I love the E55. Think this track was to slow for the AMG to perform well.

[mazmazmaz1]

I love the E55 too and ill buy that model if I wanted to buy a Mercedes

[SPEEDKILLAR]

Only 9 seconds slower :shock:

A little translation :wink:

The biker said the temperature was too low for the tires to work well but that the bike would win anyway because of its accelaration.

The AMG driver said he didn't got the tires he wanted for him to get closer to the bike, and said bassicaly if it was a race prepared car it would have killed the bike easily.

[liloutlaws]

wow kill the bike easily? how much preparation is he talking about? i thought it was suppose to be stock vs stock..if that was the case..no comparison against an r6

[astonmartinandy]

I love the e55 as well, but I don't really see it beating a sports bike around a track.

Once I heard that a E60 AMG (W210) won a battle against a 900 Kawasaki... :shock:

I don't know much about bikes...but I think its not bad...

E55 AMG is the ultimate sports saloon!!! :twisted:

[Mopsdrops]

thanks you philios55, great video, you also post very nice links, I hate it when bikes whin :fist:

[SilviaS15Cwest]

The vid was all right. It had to much talking and not enough action.

Now just imagine if they put a liter bike, say a '04 R1, that would just shame a E55AMG. Heck the '04 R1 or a Hayabusa will out-accelerate a Enzo.

[coombsie66]

Out accelerate yeah, but out brake and out handle?? Dont think so

[Ghostbat]

Out accelerate yeah, but out brake and out handle?? Dont think so

Nice to see that someone understands that performance is more than straight line acceleration..

[liloutlaws]

well the e55 amg is no enzo..and should be be able to compete w/ a bike in anyway
