XLR-V vs. E55

Guys,

I own an XLR that I am getting rid of and so I am trying to sell the wheels but then here we go and someone actually goes on starting a fight saying the XLR-V is faster than the E55...

Here is the tread

http://www.xlrforum.com/showthread.p...ed=1#post13034

BTW: i am XLR23 on that forum

Any comments on this? any experiences?

'06 E55 Black/Charcoal
Sooooooooooooooooo glad I did not get an STS-V. My buddy has one and he thought it was so fast and so much cooler than any other car. I hosed him and he had drag radials. His only question is how to make his car faster and he is in it for the next 3 years. Interior on that car is bogus.

I sat in an XLR today at a GM district office luncheon that took place in our building at work. That thing was $100K even and the inside was covered with plastic and fake (at least it looked fake) wood everywhere. The sophistication of the engineering was light years behind the level of MB's. It was absolutely no comparison to an SL55.
