Motor Trend CLS55 vs M5 side by side

...........Page 124 of current Motor trend magazine. They tested both cars. Two 1/4 mile runs each.

M5..........12.9 and 14secs

CLS55.........12.7 and 12.8 secs

...........handling was similar in my opinion after reading the article. But of course they chose the M5 over the CLS.

I probably would too since there is no rear seat head room in the CLS

CLS 55 AMG
is that the issue where they placed the CLS 55 in 3rd place? M5 and the caddy?
