WRX vs S550

I was down in Mexico over the weekend and ran into a nice 07/08 Mercedes S550. Now I didn't know much about the car other than it was really nice, and the driver had a lead foot. He saw me coming up and we began driving at a higher rate of speed than previous. I was ahead at this point after passing a slew of cars, I signaled over to the right lane and all was clear ahead. The s550 pilot takes off, hes still behind me in the left lane , I'm doing around 65ish. I waited until he was almost next to me then gunned it. I gave him a tiny bit too much of a jump over me, his previous acceleration and forward momentum placed him about a 1/2-3/4 car ahead. I began reeling him in, we were side by side, and it appeared as if I was gained a slight advantage over him, when it was time to brake due to traffic. Shut her down at almost at the top of forth, around 115-120 baby steps.

It was a good exciting run in deed.

S550 car specs are 5.5l v8 382hp 391ftlbs runs a mid to high 13@102 mph.

Always nice to run into some higher class luxury who wants to run every once and a while.
