If you had an m5 I still wouldn't justify this thread. Mercedes AMG are torque monsters, they're straight line beasts BMW's are paltry in comparison. Though BMW would still be considered the ultimate driving machine because it's got the best overall experience.
When is a thread justified? I was interested.

I was curious about the RAPED part. And quite dissappointed it was only a thread about some Merc with a blower.

thanks but it was a convertible not a coupe. the coupe was released not too long ago and should be quicker compared to the one i raced. I guess those are the stats of the CLK e55 coupe...gulpp

DJ, are you referring to the previous model CLK55 or the current model?

Znod, long time no chat! I thought I saw 4.5 for the new CLK63 not a CLK55 but I might be wrong.

Yes, it was the Coupe. Go here. It beat out the 645Ci and the Maserati Coup? Cambiocorsa in the comparo.
