This reader clearly does not understand that the ISO system of units is the word standard and km/hr is the standard for cars - the figure is about right.

For inexpensive performance modification, try the "GForce" Performance module (under $80); it's an easy installation. I've had my '99 SLK230 K. up to 150 mph. and it had room to go!

Today is a glorious day for Mercedes on fastestlaps.com. I have added the 420 E, the 500 SEL and this, Yaspaa has added the 260E, the 190E 2.6 and the 420 SEL. Total 6 Mercs! This means there are more Mercs than BMWs on this site.
