quite expensive shaa, why do you advice getting the 550 instead of the 55amgor 6.3 amg. and I really like that four exhaust plus the twin turbo on the 6.3 or the super charger on the 550.

It means you dont know anything about cars. There are many cars far more aggressive durable and stronger than Mercedes. Go to research well.
am not just talking of speed,but balance , security ,,,,, Benz don't Summersault, maintainance, yes. Benz hardly develops faults, bit if at all, it must give you signs ahead, of which u could use it for hundreds of km before that fault is fixed.

I laughed hysterically reading your post. I tell people, google horsepower (for a start) of as many cars as you can, on your spare time. So that you have a fair knowledge of cars you can challenge for speed. But @op you really insult Toyota owners o, no be small grin

I was cruising round town slowly with my car, before i knew it, a 2014 toyota highlander came screeching with high speed, almost scraping my fender... angry

If it was an old man I could have let it slide, but alas; it was a young guy with beards feeling funky...


Thankfully it was a clear and smooth road.

I put my cls in sports 2( it’s an airmatic), gassed down the throttle pedal, and i was on grin cheesy The guy was gasping for air. I flew pass him after he must have exhausted every power the toyota lowlander got.
He played catch up till we reached a traffic point.....
We were head to head together, and the only thing that stopped us was the red light. As soon as it turned green; we both hit the throttle, and as expected, my car was far gone before his could pick up enough power..
Toyota car users are the most uncouth set of airheads on the Highway, and I’m glad I taught that dunce a lesson.

Maybe he'd sell his car and get a 2008 c-300 grin

Just maybe..

leave the mu mu. I'm sure He's a corolla user with the way he sounds pained.. Must be hard for him grin

I feel driving is all about who's behind the wheels.... I drive a 2014 Camry and I drive very carefully.... Meanwhile when my friend is on the wheels, he drives more recklessly than myself.... I even caution him sometimes cos I know the expenses I'll incur in the event of an accident.

I don't think you race as fast as my friend though.... But I won't give out my car for such an experiment.

Mercedes is the best product on earth. Forget toyota, honda, rolls Royce, buggatti, Bentley e t c. You can't rely on them like even old Benz version when the chips are really down. use Benz for very very long distances,after about an hour firing, Benz go come ask u whether U really really serious say Una dey go somewhere,by then Toyota, Honda, and the rest go don cable their limit finish 50 km ahead of which Una leave the same time you will fully understand. Na then Benz go tell u say na Benz e be. It's rear tyres will first assume "k "shape, By the time all others move the next 60 km, Benz go complete both the difference of 50 km, meet them , and beat all of them. Toyotas are only good for short or distances within town, which isn't what Benz is made for. The longer the distance the better the performance of Benz. in fact, Benz go dey happier. Any Benz u pass on express is either its journey is short or its less than an hr the car enter road. Lastly, Benz alerts by giving signs when a fault is imminent of which u can travel with it without fear, till u fix it

Suddenly, Benz go come develop electrical fault Wey go involve all the mechanics and electricians in town.

Why will you brag about Racing a mercedes with an Highlander. What is the glory in that bro?

Firstly, an SUV and a Sedan. How will the SUV cope except if you are doing a straight race.

Secondly, The CL550 and and Highlander, come on.

There is no contesting the fact that Mercedez benz is superior.

Please note that those who are using Toyota mostly are not considering power and speed but RELIABILITY and EASE OF MAINTENANCE. Please get this once and for all.

Am sorry bro. This thread seems childish and looks like a direct hatered/attack on Toyota users. No offence please

It's actually not a fair challenge in that case ...

Toyotas are overrated by nigerians.....thats how I was minding my business one day along keffi abuja expressway and I passed a toyota hilux.
When I passed the hilux driver decided to race me, I looked in the mirror and saw him coming ...I just chilled and allowed him to come. I was in a bmw 535 that packs quite a punch ! When he got alongside me I just switched to sports mode. It was all over!
In the older models the sports mode had a button next to the gear...... the implication being that if for instance you're doing 120 kph and you hit the button the car literally jumps from 120kph to like 160kph in the blink of an eye ....its like a much more intense form of downshifting but with an automatic Im sure that hilux driver will never challenge a bmw again !

Go and check BMW has highest safety rating among all cars. Benz do not even come close to BMW.

Even Land Rover defender and Jeep wrangler is far better than any Benz cars for off roading. Google it and see reviews from users all over the world

Suvs are not made for speed in the first place. Secondly, Toyotas are about the most boring cars. The only Toyota I like, is the 2012 Sienna which I use. I've traveled with it several times and it runs very well but even at that, I won't compare it with a Mercedes Benz for any reason. My Sienna has a hp of 266 while the cl500 you have has a hp of 388. Guess you can see why the Benz would always leave the highlander gasping for breath. Personally, I have never been a fan of Toyota. My preferred vehicles are Mercedes Benz, landrover/range rover, BMW, Bentleys and the likes. I still intend to return to driving the benzs and land/range rovers. I used them in the past and can tell you those cars are solid.

I would rather would prefer a challenge of

W211 engine in the E-Class which is s sedan and a v6 , with the the 2GR-FE engine in the Camry which is also a V6 and a sedan .
Both has similar HP ....

Let's see how such debate goes , such challenges in my opinion would be fair ...

ehen You mean Suv are not meant for speed?, Shey cullinan and Urus na sedan

Cullinan, Urus, Bentayga are on a different level but even at that, SUVs are not made to be used as racing cars. The ground clearance between a sedan and an suv, gives the sedan more advantage and balance for racing. You don't want to try making a sharp turn at a bend with an suv like the Lexus GX470 that has poor balance and feels like it wants to lift off the ground at top speed. You'd probably end up in the hospital(if you make it alive after it somersaults and tumbles). A car with higher ground clearance is not the best for racing. They are best for navigating rough and bad terrains/roads.
