that's just like saying because 90% of the world uses windows that it means it's better than Mac OS X you can't put those 2 in the same sentence, lol. but cars & computers are 2 different things but just trying to remind you that just quantity does not = quality. Not saying anything about either company.

man were only joking here both are great brands, both produce fine cars, one is just for more sporty,
one for more relaxed drivers.

 

Can everyone just get along. I love both BMW and MB.

 

hmmm ... guys just learned from the owner of the cls that it had been chipped and with a new pulley and produces 535bhp...

so maybe not a fair comparo

 

:thumbsdown:

 

Cheating!!

Skaffa

 

Yup, I believe that. However, both cars in stock form would still place the cls ahead, I think. This particular CLS may also have a K&N filter or other.

E55 owners have been paying somewhere around $5K for an ECU and pulley upgrade from RENNTech. Not what I would say a "cheap" upgrade, but owners have been very pleased with it.

yes renntech is very overpriced IMO. in europe i would deal with kleemann, the price is 2400euro and its covered with 3 years warranty... 1800euro without the warranty
