Default WHOA!!! The amazing growing E55 AMG exhaust!

Popped out in the E55 last saturday morning to unleash al the 476 horses under the bonnet as its just gone over the 1000k mark

After a serious serious *** ripping I got out to the glorious smell of cooked brakes but also noticed that the four tailpipes were actually sticking out about an extra two inches!!!


Have seen a bit of this on my scoob but no where near as much!

With that mileage are you sure it's not a Volvo 240 you've got?

Luke,

My best mates 550 Maranello does the same. Must be something to do with cars that have over 450bhp! LOL

Same thing happens on the supersprint backbox on my CSL.

I think the car gets excited when driven fast

Might be worth checking the engine mounts haven't given up and let the engine shift backwards !!!!

Got to be careful with these cheap cars !!!!!!!
