2012 CLS63 vs GT-R on an open airstrip!

Nissan GT-R and CLS 63 AMG combine for 1,080 horsepower of hoonage


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KfbugXA0WQ&feature=player_embedded#!






Fourteen cylinders, 1,080 horsepower and six wheel drive. It's what happens when you let our friends loose on an abandoned airfield with a Nissan GT-R and Mercedes CLS 63 AMG.

Here's some jealousy fuel to get you off your *** and to the nearest vacant stretch of concrete you can find. All that space just means more room to drift and more room to get big speed.

Hey Vic, does the CLS pull harder than the GTR from 60-130? Seems like the CLS launches poorly but the video shows the CLS seem to catch and pass?

Likely at perhaps over 100 mph.

Great video , although painful to see the rubber melt, haha

It does appear that the CLS catches up. Good production. Thank you for sharing the video.
