No vids of the G55. I use it as my daily driver and as a tow car when I track the SLK. The torque this thing puts out is amazing. Although the SLK is faster and handles worlds better, I like the G more as a street vehicle. Like the SLK, it attracts a lot of attention. It will also polish off most of the "quick" street cars around. Here in Texsas, there is always some idiot in a pickup that wants to run. It's hard to resist. For a reference point, it's quicker than a 350 Z or a Boxster S in a straight line. The only thing I don't like about it is the lack of manual control of the transmission. The SLK has spoiled me.
