I was in sort of a hurry so I didn't have my lighting adjusted on my digicam so the pic came out a little blue. I found this beauty parked at a Timmies 2 lights south of Woodbine/16th. Check it out:

2007 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG

Mazda 3 GT: 2.3L DOHC 16-valve I4

HORSEPOWER:
S65 AMG: 604 HP
Mazda 3 GT: 156 HP

TORQUE
S65 AMG: 738 lb-ft @ 2,000-4,000 rpm
Mazda 3 GT: 135 lb. ft. @ 4500 rpm

0–100 km/h
S65 AMG: 4.4 seconds
Mazda 3 GT: 7.5-8.0 seconds

Scary to think that you can buy about 8-9 Mazda 3 GT's for the price of the S65 AMG.

Wow...

I've seen that before. I was at oakville downtown and was parked on the road.

I've seen that car many times but I work rite beside a Mercedes dealer. I like the CLS better.

his front tire looks a little flat.
and i love these cars. but a lot of the time only seniors drive them, or really rich folk, which always do 10 under the limit.... its such a waste of all that power!!

Nah. I've seen some "rappers" drive a car like that around the GTA. They definitely do not waste all that power because they drive them like mofos and got loud rap music going on.

I don't bother thinking how they got the money to buy a ride that costs the same as a 600 sq. ft. condo in the GTA.

A lawyer near my office has one of these along with a Lamborghini, Audi A6, Hummer H1. They are very nice cars imo
