V12 generally sluggish from idle to 2000 rpm??

I have not had a chance to test drive a CL600 or other similar beasts. There is not 1 available in the SF bay area. There are 2 in Texas that I am considering, but when a friend who is a forum member who owns a 55 test drove it today he found the CL600 to be slow and unresponsive from stop to around 2000 rpms. Is this normal on the V12 or is he just used to his 55 response?
