Soon, I think there's pictures in the newest R&T. 700 TQ (200 less, for transmission life) is pretty insane, bet in handles like crap though.

according to the C&D here in my lap....only 400 will make it here during the 2 years it will be sold here.

few specs:
est base $180,000

6.0L TT V12
604 hp @ 4800 rpm
738 ft.lbs. @ 2000 rpm
Auto tranny (no surprise there)
4800 lb get yet another

Est. performance:
12.7 @ 116 (I'm sure its faster than that...c'mon is runs a fukin 116 mph trap)
0-60....4.3

Comes out this summer

It looks basically the same as the CL55

im saying i think amg should have gone for less weight... Dont get me wrong thought, id love to cruise around with 700 ft/lbs of torque under my foot

For all the people who think it's too heavy you have to realize that this is a two-door S-class with different headlights.

1/4 mile should be better, I think the s55 or s600 does the 1/4 in 12.3 or 12.4 I believe.

These cars are cruisers, not sports cars. CL600 is probably the nicest car I've ever sat in, enough hp to take on a lot of cars including porsche and ferrari in the 1/4 mile, with massaging seats and all the other lux options.

Who cares how heavy it is, that is a straight pimp ride, not an autocrosser. 4700lbs? bring it on. I'd make it 5+ with sweet stereo equipment.

That torque has got to me sooooo fun.

id be scared of massaging seats...falling asleep on the road. But with all the electronics, im sure the car could drive itself for me.

Well most people in these cars wont do 0-60 or 60-0. They would just cruise and do 60 to 155MPH when they feel like it. thats what all the torque is for.

Oh that torque is no doubt for 0-60 as well! haha, how else do you get a 2 and a half ton sled to rocket to 60 in 4 (or less?) . Of course the 15" brakes are essential for stopping that truck, but i'm sure their grab is very nice regardless.
