I have a 507 and I agree this looks like one, and it’ll definitely hit the 180s, not that I intend to test it in mine.

The internet is full of stock (except the limiter) performance pack C63s hitting the 180s, so I buy 191. I do not volunteer to test the theory in mine, however.

Performance pack cars are 480 stock and the 507 is, well, 507.

It looks to me like a 507, so it’s making over 500 from the factory.

There are plenty of places online you can find people in the 180s in the higher trims of these with no modifications other than disabling the limiter, but none of them are dumb enough to do it on a public highway.

It definitely will with any tune at all and the limiter disabled. Possibly just the latter.

I have essentially the same car (C63 507 edition) and my 20-year-old son has what I would call an appropriate level of trepidation concerning my potential reaction to any shenanigans like this...he has driven it though, very carefully.

I’d be willing to bet he was already there when NZ shut down international travel--it was quite sudden.

I think the format works well for a long feature but it needs “previous” and “next” buttons at the top as well as the bottom.

Writer jokes!

When referring to a plant as an herb, the “h” is silent, and the article is “an.” When referring to a person as a herb, the “h” is ordinarily pronounced, as in the name Herbert, and most Americans would use the article “a,” as they do when saying “a hotel” or “a hospital.” The article choice may be regional, but the…

That’s what I said. The risk increases by something like six times.

Yes. Sperm worse than eggs. All other things being equal, it’s true that older mothers have a higher risk of complications...most of which relate to their own health, which can of course sometimes affect the child. Any number of studies demonstrate that older fathers and their increasingly defective sperm present a…

A country with a functional and stable government, strong history of extradition cooperation, and strict laws about animal trafficking? No way. Try Belize.

This dumb quiz worked surprisingly smoothly for me and I’m shook. Apparently I’m this, if you consider its best quality its speed: a Porsche 928.

I have no affection whatsoever for AMC but god help me, I love this.

Same guys who bought all those screen doors the submarines.
