Question hummm... Pops just got the CLS550

The man has worked very hard in his life and does deserve a new toy. So, I told him about the CLS and he took it for a ride and fell in love. I got a chance to drive the car yesterday and I can't explain how fast that thing feels. It is very smooth and although its 0-60 in 5.2 secs it feels like its in the 4's.

He opened his own company a year ago and I had been in mortgages (until I recently decided to join the family bus.). Anyway, back when I sold loans I purchased my 2005 G and so far, I love it. However, I don't feel right with Pops having a quicker car than me.

Do any of you think that I could put enough bolt on mods to keep up? Or is it time to supercharge the G? $6k for me is a little unreasonalbe to put into a car...

you will have to spend 6k on bolts ons to get even close to a zero to 60 time of 5.2..also the CLS550 has a ton of torque and will also spank you in the quarter...supercharger or TT setup will definitely be needed to overtake your pops

Send a message via AIM to chilibowl
The cheapest and easiest way is the vortech supercharger...you'll eat him up after that because of your better hp/weight ratio...

Yes, I am going to line him up (then get my A$$ kicked). Sounds like a vortech is the only option.

Two awesome cars.... different driveways thought...
