Why does my 1994 E-420 feel a little slow for a V8? my sisters V6 malibu is a little faster exelaration wize. my 92 jeep is fast, i thought it had about 75% oh hp then the E500? and i thought the E500 was screaming fast. idk its close to 200k miles but idk i have way more fun drive in my jeep then the benz. i guess the gear ratio could be changed but i cant do that, like i dont know how. but anyways why would it feel "slow"? its not slow cuz ive driven honda civics so i know what slow is but it doesnt feel like a V8. i guess im looking for too much out of a car. idk tho. haha
