At least he claims non-pp this time around. Remember the m6 v e55 video stating it was a 640hp kleeman e55 k4 vs 'stock' m6?

I was expecting the CLS to hang in there a little bit more. PP is a must. Great Engineering.

And for the race, thanks guys for the PBP---- a non PP car is about 3 car lengths back on a PP car so the race is spot on.

It should be given in theory as it has 560HP and probably weighs about the same, if not less? A tuned CLS should easily walk it probably be even more than 3-4 car lengths.

hope the pp car can stand to the m5. to be honest the torque on the cls pp should pull away.

Everyone seems to forget, the DCT helps the M5 with efficiency, less parasitic loss and shift speed.

Transmissions play a huge role.

I thought the CLS has a 7 speed and MCT=Multi-Clutch=DCT?

The CLS has 70 hp less looks about right.

So a tuned cls would beat an m5 obviously... What about a tuned cls vs a tuned m5? I think the m5 would take it unfortunately

i agree... the M5 looked dull and boring in real life...i am already kind of tired of the design...i am not bashing BMW i am sure it is marvelous...just not my cup of tea.
