Denn: Baba this is specifically racing open another thread for luxury and see the Rolls-Royce top the maybach, the maybach will edge the continental flying-spur with performance |

nurey:yes but you don't know your cars, u are just here beating on Benz because you hate how great they are. Yes I said that. The gtr has never disappointed?? No allow make Porsche 911 gt3 rs hear you oh . Like I said, the gtr is a quarter mile king, but anything after that it gets eaten up, even the Audi r8 v10 eats it for breakfast. Yes 3.8secs from a compact luxury sedan, that's a huge thing to be proud of if you are a car company, and add all wheel drive to that car and you'll be blown away. Are u not ashamed of defending your "fast" nissan super car from a so called luxury car?? And I said e63s not c63s. So once again, know your cars. Oh wait you can't because your Nissan almera has left you in the past lol 3 Likes |

Readonee35L:no one said Benz should top that chart. There is a Ferrari and McLaren in that line up for goodness Sake. Benz doesn't even have a car in that category, they had the sls but it was discontinued. We are talking about amg vs Nissan gtr here. If Benz wanted to top that chart, trust me they will. They are already topping the sport electric car category, look up Mercedes amg project one. And for ur information, Benz just made a new engine. 4.0 biturbo v8 with 612bhp. 3 Likes |

king406: We @ Nissan motor corporation don't make excuses for failure, we learn from it, how many king of the track can boost superiority with a V6 engine? Now let me tell you no car has the advantage of all race parameters, you either pick some and loose some. The ford GT used to be king of top speed, the opel roadster and Mazda rx were the formidable corner king, the Nissan Gtr was the drag king but as usual things change. Your E63 S, S63 S coupe, CLA etc will lose to the Nissan GTR the Benz doesn't have a solution to the destructive power of the 3.8 L VR38DETT twin-turbo V6 probably Benz may have a solution in 2025 by then Nissan would have gone all electric PS I don't hate Benz, I respect all car makers because they have stamped possibilities in the Sands of time |

nurey: You are beating round the bush. First, you said no one races a RR (even after you unilaterally introduced the RR to this thread. Then you say another thread should be opened for luxury performance. Stick to one side of the gun and shoot |
Re: World's Greatest Drag Race 7 by nurey(m): 7:12am On Sep 28, 2017 |
Denn: Baba take it easy, we are not fighting. The first guy said AMG isn't about performance but luxury and I said if I pitch the AMG (which will only be the S-class and it's many variants) in the luxury division it will loose. Off course it has been done against the Rolls-Royce and Bentley Continental flying spur it came second behind the RR. I am not saying we should drag race 5k pounds of metal nah |

nurey:we at Mercedes-Amg have never failed, we invented the car anyways. Not many can boast a v6 super car but I know Porsche's flat 6 cylinder engines are the kings of all 6 cylinder engines. Gtr never beat Porsche 911 gt3 in drag races, the gtr fanboys managed to make that fade away. The new e63s that was unveiled two months ago won't lose to ur gtr, even the s63 will eat the Nissan in a half mile race. CLA?? Why bring CLA into this convo? Anyway it won the best 4 cyl engine on 2015. Just for your records I hope you know it was Mercedes-amg that built the legendary McLaren F1's engine that was the fastest car in the world for almost 10years before bugatti came. I also hope that you know Mercedes-amg makes the iconic pagani Zonda 's/huayra 7 litre v12, currently the 7th or 8th fastest car (not sure). I am hoping you know about the legendary icon CLK-GTR. And Yes, Nissan has already gone all electric, checkout the mighty Nissan leaf 4 Likes |

king406: Pride goes before destruction try again your 2018 E63 S is still slow 0-62mph in 3.4secs quarter mile at 11.4secs try again keep the AMGs coming they will still get beaten by 3.8 L VR38DETT twin-turbo V6 but this time try something in the V12 league |
Re: World's Greatest Drag Race 7 by king406(m): 6:23pm On Sep 28, 2017 |
nurey:u keep bringing up 0-60 times, that doesn't totally show what a car is capable of, and so do quarter mile drag races. In this category of cars they hit about 120-125mph in a quarter mile and that's just about 200kmh. That is not a lot of speed, 200kmh is when these cars actually start to get going. Maybe for u 200kmh I a lot because almera cannot get to that speed anyway watch this video and you'll understand what I mean. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=X-CYm8qvb2o If that race had been 3secs longer the amg would have won, even the Audi would come back to pass the Nissan 1 Like |

Mercedes did do well in the Lightening lap on the VIR track but when the cost and time is considered a Camaro will be a better option I am not sure how a Mustang 350GT would have performed but cost of ownership will be a lot lower. http://www.caranddriver.com/features/lightning-lap-2017-every-lap-time-and-full-data-feature Speed,luxury, and performance are distinct features of cars different users look for and it is hard for a car to be the best in all. |

Re: World's Greatest Drag Race 7 by king406(m): 10:32pm On Sep 28, 2017 |
DaimlerBen:my mistake. I thought it was amg because they supplied engines to McLaren from 1995-2014. The F1 was made in 1993 before amg started supplying engines to them. Anyway, AMG supplies engines to Aston Martin |

mammanbawa: You are already biased in your comparison, you picked S63amg but picked LS500 for Lexus I don't know where you got that from. But you should have just compared Mercedes-Benz to Lexus {company to company} instead of listing out all their car models since you want to make a statement. The Nissan GTR was better than the Amg in the race as you can see the evidence there is no need hating any car maker rather give them respect. |

nurey: Your statement " if I pitch the amg" That's why my comparison is amg based And yes, we can't compare two car companies but we can compare their models which I've done. To satisfy you, forget about the s63 take the s500 and..... |

This is almost a year after and Benz/AMG have not built anything faster than the GTR. The 2013 GTR NISMO is still king over AMG any day anytime. I hope the Benz fan boys will accept defeat before the year runs out by 1/1/19 it would make six years of night mare reality caused by VR38DETT to some people 1 Like |
