Mercedes CLS55 AMG CD 10/05 4.20 12.50 115.00

Mercedes CLS55 AMG MT 1/06 4.30 12.50 114.50
Mercedes CLS55 AMG MT 3/06 4.50 12.70 113.60
Isn't the CLS heavier than the E?

N?rburgring Lap times (the best in there is the best anywhere):
7:52 ? 157.119 km/h ? BMW M5 (E60), 507 PS/1844 kg
7:52 ? 157.119 km/h ? Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren (sport auto 06/2004)
8:06 ? 152.592 km/h ? Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG (sport auto 04/2002)
does anyone want to go to page 2 and find CLS and E55???
Let MB E65 come. For sure it will be worst than SLR... (and therefore M5)...

Good old chap, I don't know who the ...uck is ZNOD and its credibility...
But for sure I know the Ring and the credibility of "Auto Motor und Sport"
Take some German lessons and follow the link:
http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/d/71199
![Nono](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/nono.gif)
Besides that, I've stated that SLR and M5 are able to make the same time at the Ring.
If you are talking about High-speed on a "de-restricted" highway, there's no question about the SLR, but the ring is not exactly and Oval or a 4 just curve circuit...
