Well I guess you can say I got my revenge..he moved on to a E92 M3 with a RPI exhaust & I currently have a stock C63 AMG with the exception of secondary cat deletes. Pulled him by 1 and a half car lengths from 30-100mph, it should get interesting when my Eurocharged tune comes in the mail this week. Then it will be sitting at 540 crank HP

Why only stop at 100? I love the way M3's look especially the e92. Sorry hehe. I've driven some amg models (not c63 tho) and they have really nice interior and nice big motors but they just are not my cup of tea. 540hp sounds fun. I've driven an Alpina b7. those are around 500 hp. Bad ass cars...

My dad has a AMG SLK 55. I raced him on the freeway from a 30 role uphill. we were even until i hit 4th gear, then he started to pull. I piked at him saying my 2.2 was working him, he didn't like that much lol. Ive also raced a few others around town with the same results. Never seen one spin the tires while driving, maybe the owners around here don't know how to lay it down. Ive driven my dad countless times, its ok. My old S13 would leave my dad in the dust lol.

Most all AMG cars from 2008 and up come equipped with KW Variant 3 Coilovers, hence the reason why he might have hung well through the curves...

Stopped at 100mph because traffic was nearing & yes I love M3's, in fact I still want one & might sell the C63 in the future for a stick M3.

Hmm interesting, you must be boosted? I rarely run into any SLK55's on the street since they are so rare, I will see more GTR's, M3's, C63's, ISF's in a week than I will see one SLK55. There must be a lot of SLK55's in your town..

Really, do you have a source? That is the first time I heard anything like that, so you're saying my 2009 C63 is equipped with KWV3's stock? Lol. That wouldn't make sense if that was true since so many people on MBWorld are either swapping out there suspension for aftermarket KWV3's or H&R's for there cars...
