They dont drive fast and dont run their cars very hard, but they have money and like nice toys. When they go out of town they leave the toys with me and actually expect them to get a workout when they are gone. Lucky me .

Oh and I love the look my wife is giving me when she comes out. You can just tell she's thinking what in the heck is that moron doing now, priceless.

Ha Ha!! That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw her come out. All I can say is that I have never heard a Benz sound like that. Sounds cool!!!

I had THE same thought, watching her walk out.

Is that factory exhaust? What does it sound like on the inside?

Nice post!

Nice post!

Full factory exhaust, and it is silent inside. Its a little odd to have such comfort and a quiet ride, then romp the go pedal and your are quickly reminded it has the power and tunning of a super car.

That sounds great. When I was at CAT I liked when we had the 3412 come in to be rebuilt. Those sounded so good on the dyno. Those extra 4 cylinders just smooth them out.

I have to say, that's not at all what I expected to hear when you fired it up. I was expecting some whistle, but that thing just sounds mean!

A bicycle with a card in the spokes sounds better than that Ferrari.
