Diane Warwick SG The problem with me is i always read, the last few posts...so times i miss out alot of info, apologies I am beta testing my first ever forum now....bourne by my frustrations of using others...should be ready by mid-june i guess
Kr0n SG I'm more informed on Gumball and Ultimate Rally. The rest, not so much. Kim is quite mad, really. I saw a video of him driving an S-class around on a golf course lol. He somehow reminds me of the 5005 driver... more than just a few similar characteristics
Diane Warwick SG Anyone that does not own the car he is driving would drive like that referring to 5005
TwinTurbo_Supra SG i dunno if i am VERY LUCKY or VERY UNLUCKY today. firstly, me and my dad were just cruising down an expressway when a yellow car blasted past us with quad exhaust. it was an M coupe. the problem was I BROUGHT MY CAMERA BUT NO TIME TO TAKE!!! secondly, i saw a Ferrari 328 speeding down the opposite road quite far away. SAME PROBLEM!!! next, the ultimate rare car in Singapore. we were coming out from the junction of C&C by Alexandra road when another yellow car blasted past. this time my heart skipped a beat, it was a Zonda Roadster. i was stunned sia, even my dad asked me wad happened. about 0.3 seconds after blasting past, i heard it's BEAUTIFUL EXHAUST NOTE, i think at that point of time i was crying with joy. after going onto the main road my heart rate increased dunno how many times. i just lost my Zonda virginity. AGAIN THE PROBLEM WAS NO TIME TO TAKE PHOTO!!! then, i saw an SL55 AMG blasting past and a Bentley Arnage at an opposite junction. BOTH NO TIME TO TAKE!!! SO EVERY1, DUN NPNT ME BECAUSE I AM DAMN PISSED RIGHT NOW!!!
dansplace SG None, but its internals does Anyway, its an e8 with a gialla front bumper and the varis CF hood, plus more lah... but why tell...?
Diane Warwick SG I hate to burst the bubble here. But I think the S55 is a fake. First up, people who buy the real deal rarely mod it further unless youare in the states. Because once you mess with an identiy, it turns to disbelief instantly. So naturally most owners of factory AMG cars just leave the exterior very well oalone so that it is consistent with a recognised profile. A dead give away are the rims, and secondly the V12 badge on the flank. (rear door edge) Which one can easily buy for 50 odd plus euro from the dealer incl installation Plus it is riding to high to be an AMG suspension with or without load leveling.
Vanquish SG yr eyes very sharp and wat u said makes sense... but then i m very sure it's a s55 amg... i have been noticing S-class mercs everyday... the s280 s350 s500 and many more... i am able to differentiate between them... firstly, this s55amg tat i saw was very different from the rest of the s-class i normailly see... secondly the twin exhaust pipes were real one and not fixed on ones (if this is not s55amg, it is s280 becoz of lights but s280 got no twin exhaust pipes)... so i m very sure this one is a s55amg... but i m sure the v12 badge at the rear door edge is a fake one...
quek SG guys !!! look out for the new merc CLS...jus saw a test drive tis evening when i was studying at king albert park
Diane Warwick SG Well the best way to be certain is to check the road tax disc and calcualte backwards to get the CC...this mystery to be continued. The exhaust like you said is not just the tips, next time you see this car again take a look at how it is conected, pretend to drop a key or something, see if both exhaust originates from the front or just one side only. If it is connected one side only there will be a pipe that cuts across the boot area to link to the other. Plus the boot lid spoiler is a dead give away too.... But then the best way to confirm is road tax disc...my guess it might be a V8 but not S55 probably a S430. That is if both exhaust come from the front. The rims are SLR lookalikes
bismarck SG dont remind me. just took some pics of this capp at renault showroom before then happily keep cam in the bag as i walked down that road..then this car.. the front nvr see before yet familiar pass me by ..then i realised...cls (i think) 55amg... sibei pek chek..
Diane Warwick SG After looking at the S55, i just returned to look at the SL55 Just my guess, if i am present to see the car perhaps i will be more sure..
