Can't find any performance skid pad or 0-60 for 2008 CL65!!

I was googling info for 2008 cl65 cant find any.

I read that the S65 handles better than S63 is it true?

I think i cant find a good used S65 all asking to much money. Imma settle for less LOL.

I was just wondering if the CL65 is any good at the skidpad or 0-60? Hehe I am going to take some pictures of my friends CL65 it just arrived today. He is still trying to sell his CL63.

Oh he was asking if there is a way to make the exhaust sound little louder or louder without changing the mufflers

I suggested remove resonator...

The S63 should handle better, as it weighs less. Suspension components are the same in both.

As for the CL, you can remove the resonator, but it gets obnoxious in the car from the exhaust drone. I dont recommend it. Mufflers are a better idea.

Actually, one of the several reputable magazines (i believe Brittish) concluded that the V12 was much more of a handler, and a better satisfying drive overall, after testing both back to back. Also, other magazines have had a consensus that the V12's superior torque made for a much better experience with the S Class weight.

That is correct. Most automotive critics preferred CL600 over CL63 hands down and S600 over S63. CL/S65 are on a totally different level and costs a lot more $$$
