ML 320 CDI
Slower to 0-100km/h because of weigth and MB 7g-tronic, but than Audi is superior like the bmw 530d, and I'm talking of bigger classes, if I talk of bmw 330d it smokes c320cdi by far.
7g-tronic on 320cdi only gives more acceleration, at high speed it gears are too short.
No more talking diesels, c350 is way faster than the c320cdi, dont look only to the numbers, an 270Hp petrol engine is way faster than a 225hp v6 turbo-diesel, beside is torque and good power.
PS: c320cdi top speed is 260km/h audi A6 does 280 like the bmw. (on speedo, not sure if its real!)

If you knew anything about torque you would know that a high torque output engine gives you terrific mid-range accelaration without having to thrash the nuts off it, unlike a pittifull Audi 3.0 TDi which is severely lacking mid range acceleration.
BTW the Mercedes is limited to 250 kph as are the Audi and BMW which is part of a " Gentlemans agreement " set in the 70's by Germany's main car manufacturers,
