He is saying that the CTSV performs better than the C63 only b/c MB allowed it to happen on purpose...cuz if they actually tried it would easily beat it.

I love cars - all cars. Just don't like it when people bash a good car by saying stuff like this.
Ok, thats cool.

I was just saying to hhughes1 that a simple retune isn't going to make the C63 unbeatable...especially since the CTSV will undoubtedly have another 30-50hp of untapped potential as well for little money.
I think you missed my original post #2 in the thread that starts with " 3 great cars for sure" Like wise I am a car nut and I appreciate brand diversity and how it forces all manufacturers to raise their game. However this is a MB forum and I will continue to whine about the missing ponies at least until I have a chance to get it rectified by one of the code masters like MHP

I look forward to the continuing progress they're making on these cars!

Um, I'm pretty sure that you meant "status", not "stigma".
