Yes, impressive!
But imo oh so very pointless!
MB is trying to change its image and attack other market niches in a very cost-effective but inefficient way.
They still can't make a car that steers with good feedback or a chassis that can really put to the road more than 350 hp but now they give you 612 hp and God knows how many NMs of torque!
Good job...

...weight differences E55 vs. SL 55 ?
Sport Auto did weigh both cars (gas filled up):
E 55: 1944 kgs, issue 01/2003
SL55: 1968 kgs, issue 04/2002
hardly any difference

So RC, when the E55 gets bumped to 500hp later on, it may just be a quick erase and pencil in.
The SL55 can also be ordered with Panorama roof. Not sure why you would do this when you live in California and already have a drop top.

Now I try to give you some food for thought: imagine you're married and have kids, imagine you are 35-50 years old and already have had your fun on the track, imagine that you have to drive a lot on the Autobahn and imagine that you need some comfort too because starting with 30, health problems arise. Just imagine...
