Default Step on the pedal, barely moves???

Its not the srt6 but the clk 55 amg, i havent had it a week yet and the other day it acted up. It just wouldnt go... it was so bad i had to get off the road... I put it in park and when i would gas it, it would take like ten seconds to rev to 2000 rpm's, wtf. the engine sounded smooth as usual but just wouldnt respond. it had a visible throttle cable and it was working properly. I shut it off and called a buddy to come get me n when he got there (10 mins) i started it up to show him n it was fine. I drove the car home 560 miles the day i bought it and probably over 200 since it acted up and it has been fine since. what could it be??? I havent had time to join a forum for that car yet, what are the good ones?

These cars are too smart for their own good. Never had that problem on my '63 or '66 Buicks.
