Isn't the C63 a smaller car with the same motor? Since it's a lighter car I think C will win.

+1 for the CLS based on the specs... CLS produces more power than the C

It's -13 out right now! Saw dozens of cars today just shut down in the middle of the road due to these freezing conditions lol.

It will be close until you get into some tight twisties. Then the weight penalty will kill the handling of the CLS.

It's a factor for sure, but so is driver skill and how far said drive is willing to push to win. Willing to risk a meeting with a ditch for glory? The guy that is just might have the edge.

Sorry about the late update. Both cars are NOT stock. Both the CLS63 and C63 were both at the drag strip but weren't able to run with eachother. But with warm weather coming this will be a fun challenge for both cars. Next drag event should be soon! I'll keep everyone updated.

In the corners we have to remember the CLS is very structurally stiff. It has 40% more torsional rigidity then the E it is based of off. But yes 250kg is allot of mass to throw around.
