I bet he doesn't have the new benz though. The new v12 engines(starting 2003) in the Cl600 and S600 are twin-turbo. 496hp and 590 tq.



Supposedly good for about 5 seconds 0 to 60 mph.

he changes cars about every 9 months and says the 4000-6000 penalty isnt a big deal for him. he walks around his house complaining he doesnt know what to buy. i told him a boat so i can go fishing. i think he'll do it

Your brother in law does not have a GT1, maybe he has a GT2, only a handfull of GT1s were sold for at least a million a piece.





Its a hypothetical question, just play along and think of some cars you mindless bastids.
