CLK500 Vs Volvo S60R

Did anyone try this before? Those Volvos seem quite fast.

S60R tech info:
trany: 6 speed MT
Engine: 5 cylinders HPT 2.5L
Output : 300bhp @ 5400rpm
Max torque : 400Nm @ 1950-5300rpm
0-60mph : 5.4s
Top speed : 155mph limited

Anyone gotta go against one?? The Auto trany from the R are slow. But I hear the MT are damn fast.

close match!

it will be a close match. the R has 300 horsepower from 2.5 turbocharged and clk500 has 305 horsepower with heavier body. the clk500 had some fast 0-60 (fastest was 5.2 sec).

How heavier is the CLK? The R is not light weighted btw. Don't forget about the AWD drivetrain.

I thought CLk500 does 0-62mph in 6s flat. So 0-60 should be at the high 5s. More of 5.8s.
What about CLK500 Vs new S4?
