Now if you had enough room and patience you would see that if you mash the gas going 65 and HOLD it 120 will be upon you quicker then you think and in a very stealthy fashion. Why? Partly for MPG requirements and the EU-4 emissions standards, but that is why the car has the AMG tuned speed shift program...to learn more search speed shift on the forum. Your car seems to be working correctly...I think you need to spend some time in a regular car, your getting jaded.
sounds good...except that i am mashing the gas and nothing! the car worked fine until about 1,000 miles ago. there is definitely something wrong. trust me, if it happens to you, you will know what im talking about. when you push down on the throttle as hard and as far as you want to, no response.
