Anyway, I'm not very comfortable going over 85 on the highway. There's a speedway too close to my house, and I'm itching for a very fast car to take there. When did M-B start making 12 cylinder engines?
Yeah the 98 is a turbo, soon to be chipped and it moves.

MB came out with their first V12 in 1992.

85 in say an S600 is a slow just off idle cruising speed.

Notice the super lame kill joy at 135. A rusted out 5.0 Mustang can pass you in a proper race.:wtf:
