This was an in-betweener, as it rivaled both the E39 M5 and E60 M5. However, the W211R E63 was the true E60 M5 rival.

E 55 AMG competition

Both awesome cars though, I think wasted is the wrong word for the 210.. beaten yes and you'd hope so! But wasted.. NO.. we'll leave that for the crappier BMW M3 and their typical arse BMW owners.. Go AMG 210 or 211!

I wasted a W210 E55 in my W211 55 1 mile. Bit quicker than the M3's i've beat but not nearly as quick.
