Is the best sport sedan out as said by EVERY automagazine contrary to what some bud lite drunks think. It beat the M5, an Audi, and a Jaguar. It goes 0-60 as fast as some ferraris like the 355 spider(in 4.6 sec.), and has more horsepower than ANY Bimmer out. It does not need a manual because it goes crazy fast with an auto and will go even faster with a seven speed. it also is worth the money is costs with genuine wood trim lots o leg room and other Mercedes specialties, in other words EVERYTHING you need!
The E55 is the fastest sedan out right now, and is the REAL ultamate driving machine
Mercedes-Benz's response to the threat of the BMW M5. The first generation E55 had only 350hp, from a 5.5-liter v8, compared to the M5's 400hp from a 5.0-liter v8. For the current model, AMG had to add a supercharger to boost hp to 470+. Some say the car's frame is too weak for the engine, though.
I'd rather have a 2004 E55 AMG than a 2005 BMW ///M5. The 5-series is getting ugly.
The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.
The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.
The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"
"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
