E550 COUPE VS Modded M3

I ran my new E550 coupe with 650 miles on it agaisnt a Modded M3 E46, The m3 has full sprinter exhaust, i dont know what that is lol.

WE ran from 45mph-125mph right before my govenor kicks in, I was in 2nd gear in sport and M mode traction off, I pulled around 4-5 cars on him by the time i was 100mph good race lol. My car sounds like a muscle car lol and im going to race my buddys 370z nismo i will post video of that.

650 miles on your coupe. Must be a different break-in procedure for the E550 versus my CLS63???

No big victory IMO

We are talking about your 5.5 litre Benz vs the older Inline 6 M3
