I'll need to check the 55'z 0-60 when the woman'z not around. My clk is "rated" between 7.4-7.9 seconds depending where you read it. Reality is 6 flat, or 6.5 if it falls on its face off the line.
It would be a guess, but my moms 320 is probably 9-10

Yeh, very fast for an suv, but 5000lbs was my point, it'll never be a hot rod. That's one reason I'd rather have the 320, gas is expen$ive! If I want to hot rod I'll drive something else, like a Chevota

Aren't those WRX supposed to be super fast? He was probably just having fun with the ML.
A lot of times I see race vids like this they'll be driving like this guy; tailgating, cutting close, lots of lane changes etc. Why do they need to be so obnoxious?

Really Fast???? Did you watch the VID??? take a look at the Speedo in the WRX it was pegged at 160MPH!!! The ML55 is speed limited at 155MPH thats why the WRX was able to pass..I know someone that has a Kleemann supercharger installed and chip remapped (speed limiter disabled) His ML55 would most likely rip the WRX STI up!!!

It's hard to tell from a video but it didn't seen like 160. No, I couldn't see the #'s, I thought it was kph. Aren't those WRX like 12sec rides?

Supercharger would be sweet. They should've put 'em on stock!
