harry1 SG Hi SEI - Heard that you are overseas now enjoying your 996 Turbo - highly highly envious! Yes sold my SL quite a while ago, and decided that I needed 4 drs for weekend trips hence it was a choice between a qptte, M5 or E55 (or wait for 18 months for the Porsche Panamera!). Bot the car second hand 1 yr old with 5k on the clock hence quite worth it at 20% discount to new price. Abis 2 tahun mau2 ganti mobil lagi. Si MMM has reserved it already CeeCookie - Yes the M5 does come with launch control but I dont think I'll be using it anytime soon as dont really feel like signing away the cheque book! Garage R - If you could maybe send me the high res pics to my bmw-sg pm address would be much much appreciated! Thanks!
alleggerita SG The launch control better don't use it too often..haha..bad for the gearbox's health..
t3r SG harry.... gw terry... remember me? hehehe anyway..why u like loud exhaust??? can get the eisenmann meisterchaft.... or kressiegeg...sounds awesome... hartge front lip is nice too
SEI SG you are lucky you bought the m5 over the E55... i regret buying the CLS55 that car really isnt a drivers car its so damm boring to drive..... haha im getting kinda bored of the turbo im debating between a gallardo spyder SL65 and the murci (for some reason a murci is cheaper then a gallardo spyder... i dont like the people staring at my car all of the time.... think the sl might be better it attracts less attention... jack wants to get ur m5 already??
n0x SG since when mercedes engines use turbo... come here and tok c0ck...knn u rich but the car let u drive is fcuking wasted.... u these kinda of rich pple dunno how to fully appreciate a car...
Garage R SG loud nice mah..but hey! keep the M5 look there..dun touch the look..change exhuast can..but dun touch the M5 kits..keep original..nice!
Elysium7 SG He isn't referring to the Mercedes, right now he's driving a Porsche Gemballa 550 Biturbo
ceecookie SG I suggest you google about mercedes engine with turbo before opening ur dumb mouth here.
n0x SG hey talking abt dumb mouth yours aint better.... i can dig out tons of thread where u are being flamed like siao... of cos mercedes uses turbo for its desiel... but petrol?? no way.. and i am pretty sure the cls55 engine dun use a turbo.... if he is talking abt tt
CDL SG lol... the cls55 uses a supercharger not a turbo. but regardless this whole argument is irrelevant and started by a small misunderstanding. like elysium stated, he wasn't referring to the CLS when he said "turbo" he was referring to his current, turbocharged car.
tomsss SG actually... the word "turbo" can also be generally used to describe any car that has forced-induction... whether it is via turbocharger, supercharger, nitrous-oxide, turbine powerplant or even rockets to sidetrack even more... the word "VTEC" can also be used to describe a living thing or object going into overdrive mode, as displayed below:
tomsss SG Mercedes also got play with Wankel (rotary) engines before leh, in the C111 experimental cars. dun play play arh
