CLS55 AMG
CLSAMG, how do you find time to drive all those cars?

M6 was a car I was thinking hard on buying (I really am not a BMW fan), but when I found out CLS had the 55 engine, Had to pull the trigger. They really dont have a nice interior in the M6.

Don't forget power to weight ratio. Your SLK55R is a bit on the lighter side. So that's another advantage but it'd be quite interesting to see those 2 run... Don't forget to video it Jess! Show em what RennTech is all about.

SL55 AMG Black on Berry Red
LOL, could he have cut off the AMG exhausts to put on single tail pipes? i highly doubt it. although the newer MBs that have AMG bodykits and or rims have AMG badges on them even if it's not a true 55 AMG. the MBs in Europe come like that if you have the AMG sports package. So maybe he's not a poser afterall. who can really say.....?

My CLS is a 320 CDI with AMG package and AMG Wheels.
In Europe it's not called the sport package as it is in the US. They just ask you if you want the AMG badge or not when you order it. The exhaust pipes are AMG's written on too and that's all original!!!

As you can see I don't need to pretend anything if I want to drive a fast car I take the M6 that so many of you hate, but still a fantastic car. It's just a question of taste.

At least with those pictures you can compare the esthetic of both cars...

Please believe that the 320 cdi with the engine upgrade as no one reason to be ashamed of it's power.
What engine upgrade is it that you are talking about? Is it something that you can order with the car from factory or is it something that you have had done afterwards? What kind of results does that upgrade give and how much is it in Euro i.e?

WOW...that sounds fantastic! For how much time and distance have you been driving with the upgrade? Any problems yet? Am thinking about having an engine upgrade done when the CLS 320 CDI gets delivered....thx for answering so quickly! Do you know what 170 mph is in km/h? I live in Denmark...so thats why i'm asking....:-)

The CLS rides now at 260km/h

I drove it over 10 000 kilometers now and never had any problem unless the gas consumption is lower than before

on the highway gas consumption is under 7 liters/100kilometers.

I do more than a 1000 kilometer with one gas tank

Nice...really, really nice! Love the look of your car by the way!

I've just been on the Brabus homepage, and it says that the car should get around 272HP and 560nm...?Have you had your cars performance measured after the tuning?

You are right, That's the numbers I found too and that's the same module I had.The garage told me ****!!!

I think I'll feel the car is less powerfull now.

As soon as I'll have the dyno done, I'll give you the numbers

Sorry about that...thought you already knew about those numbers!

Im sure the car runs pretty nicely still though...but could be nice with measurement so you could maybe tell your dealer about it if they keep on promising people more then they can give. But maybe the dyno will show that your specs are currect after all...cant always count on what the tuning companies say after all.
