There's no C55 in the Mercedes lineup. There's a CLK55, which is a mid-13s car, and there's an E55, which runs mid-12s stock. What forum did you see this in?

Theres a C something or other but its an AMG model. No Mercedes C class anything had anything more than a V6(not to be confused with the CL class) Either way, the AMG C class is a s/c V6 with 350hp. And runs a low 14 I believe. All Mercedes weigh a lot. The best times for any Mercedes is 12.5 for the S600 and I believe the CL600 and SL500.

i was at sac during the ford vs chevy race, and befor i left i think it was a s600 or something like that, maybe it had a special package or something or maybe a different model. but anyways it was the BIGGEST fucking mercedes they make and YES it went 11.9. Saw it with my own eyes. DAMN those shits are fast. [Big Grin] [patriot]

I think it's the C43 for a 4.3 V6 Supercharged, or was that the last model?


Whoops, the newest one is a C32

Almost every time I'm there I see that car. I saw him bolting up his AMG wheels, which cost about 600 each lol. Thoses cars have twin turbo V12's in them and almost 550hp stock. And the new one is the C32 like blackdrop said. AMG car.

Oh, and I have a Motor Trend from August 2003 testing the 2004 Audi S4 vs. 2003 C32AMG...
The C32 runs a 13.24@106.86. I had one of these try to race me...but knowing what AMG is....and knowing my car is slower than hell I didnt race...he took off though and that car is real quick!

Looks like it was special order only last year, and in production late this year

Michael Jordan owns a c55 black convertible, I saw him driving it on tv and was like wtf. After that I noticed 2-3 more driving around up in danville/blackhawk area. I have never been in my car when I have seen them, so I have yet to see if they are really that fast. Damn I hate seeing cars I want to race when Im in the work van!

The c43 came with a V8 in it.....from......'98-'00 i believe. It had the same motor that that year E55 had.....it was a pretty good sleeper, but nothin like the new E55. The real talk is wha they got over in europe....the CL65, S65, SL65.......TT V12 puttin some 600hp and some 700 ft/lbs stock......a lot of people are tryin to get them to ship it over here. Should be some fun stuff for the people who can afford them.
