Well............not my type of car

Drove it in Germany 2 years ago - it was very fast straight ahead, really entertaining, but felt scary on small twisty roads.

Probably a very comfy cruise missile for long autobahn trips

awhh come on guys let's play nice, lol but honestly we can't realy expect much from the CL, it's just a very big luxo sedan with 2 doors. I think it's still prolly one of the best luxo cruisers out there just don't take it out to a track thinking your David Coulthard or something, lol.

the same old story.... ok or in case of AMg it is a great engine......... but way too bad car that can't even handle such power.
I had a chance of driving a couple of MB's and it was a total dissapoitment.... when I got back to my Audi after those MB test rides it felt like I have a much much better car....
