sl55 or sl600 - which one is faster
#16
I saw with the money saved by going from 600 to 55 you trick the car out. At least get some nice HRE 20's and I know it comes with an AMG kit but get like a Wald or Autocouture kit ....Something like these cars...

I think they will accompany. Its not like someone can put 25000+ on a car just like that. i think I also heard its only avalable in ltd amount and for 2 years. Doesnt it come out as a 2005 model i beleive.

Take a look at this thread on MBWorld...
Heres a picture of the dyno of an 03 S600:
Its making 481.5 rwhp, which translates into 615 HP at the crank (using the RennTech measured drivetrain loss of 21%)...STOCK
