CLS55 vs M5 Track Test Video

The score turns out to be dead even...2 to 2 in the end.
M5 has the performance and handling... While the CLS55 has the styling and interior.
I think they should have another go at this… but this the CLS55 with the Performance Package. Probably be a closer race on the performance category, interesting video none the less.

If only it were as simple as that.

So if I apply the same logic, the new 6.3 liter from AMG is 26% bigger than the 5.0 from BMW, but makes the same HP.

Yeah
'Siiiick'

What ever floats your boat... In straight line performance 0-60 wise I thought the M5 put down 4.7 w/ LC and 5.4 w/o LC. But it makes it up as it goes... At least I think those are the performance figures. Anyways, its a matter of preference... Personally the M5 is flat out ugly; I can not get over the "select" styling cues of the car.
But in the scheme of things, The score was tied. 2 to 2... Even
