No kill but a dead heat tonight. E55 Kleeman AMG. 5mph roll on up to 70mph.
We stopped at next light. Very nice guy said RS looked and sounded awesome, I returned the compliments. Only went to 70 as it was a 50 mph area and not intrested in "illegal contest of speed" citation. Anyone know what a "Kleeman" is?
PS: I initially got about 1/2 length but hit rev limiter in 2nd and he caught up. From a standing "hard" start I think I might have held him off until 90-100 mph.

Kleeman has multiple stages but a stock E55 should be quicker in a straight line...
Kleemann is a Mercedes tuner. Stock E55s run low to mid 12s. A K4 E55 is seriously quick, runs low 11s @ over 120mph. The car has so much torque. A K4 (Pulley + ECU + Headers + Camshafts + Exhaust system + modified inlet house and throttle body) runs 640hp and 731ft/lbs.

My friend's stock E55 doesn't pass me until 110 mph, from a standing start.
In a roll on it is a completely different matter. From 60 mph he can put an embarrassing pass on me.

In the Seattle area?
If so, it's a Stg-2 Kleeman.
560hp/600lb-ft
12.1 @ 120 MPH
Another AW'er (Kimchee) is looking into buying it.

I'll bet it was a low level upgrade. It had the Kleemann and AMG logo's on the rear deck.
From what is posted below I don't think it could have been a 600 HP car. Very little wheelspin as we took off. PS it was a black sedan.
