Sure, if the driver of the Z06 is not competent and you race one from light to light you could win, but that can be said about nearly any two cars if one driver is competent and the other is not.

Both great cars, both cars should be enjoyed for thier intentions. The 63's intention was not to compete with the Z06 when it comes to performance, and the Z06 was not meant to compete with the 63 when it comes to daily drive ability and comfort.

This is the best post in this thread.
I have nothing further to add and agree 100%
I was just excited about the TV show and its stunt coordinator and teamster captain giving props to the E class sedan. Great post man you really hit it out of the park

Hey, Venom. Same old, same old.

I try to be over 1/4 tank. The more weight I can keep over the rears, the better I get out of the hole. At track rentals, I notice that if I need to fuel up because my gas light goes on, my launches greatly improve once I drop a few gallons of fuel in there.

I agree the Z is an incredibly fast car. I barely beat three of the last four that I raced. The fourth beat me.

You talking about drag racing or going around a track? I walked a Z06 going round Willows, but I'm pretty sure the Z06 had more. I was pushing the E HARD. In a straight, I'm pretty sure the Z06 just eats us up.

Its gonna do a mathematical equation for you as you drive it? its gonna read a book? Post as many videos as you want. Simple common sence tells you that the ZO6 is superior to your 63.
Hey numnut, judging by the way you talk, your'e either not old enough to drive or sea-nile. And the funny thing about all this is that the zo6 and cls/E should never be compared yet your car actually got beat 4 times ON THE TRACK in front of my own eyes. Sorry man, I dont mean to hurt your feelings bieng that your sensitive and all but reality hurts sometimes.

Ya and whats even more impressive is the cls driver was inexperienced on the track and with the car and Im assuming the Zo6 driver was too but at the same time, with the type of raw power the zo6 puts out, You'd never expect a 4600lb stock 4-door sedan to even keep up to the z06's rear view mirror yet the cls beat the vette 4 times on the track and btw it was two different zo6's not the same one.

This proves absolutely nothing other than that the Z06 drivers were not up to par as the Merc driver. As proven before countless times, a professional driver in a cargo van laps inexperienced drivers in Porsches. Does that mean that the cargo van is a more capable car? Come on now fellows, now we're really stretching things here.

that just cant be possible. the only explanation was a retarded z06 driver. the e/cls weighs almost twice what the vette weighs and should be walked by the vette on any track and any drag strip

Then there you have it. This entire thread becomes a mute point. Put a real driver in the Z06 and the game is over.

this thread has mutated into once again AMG vs Z06 due to the lack of comprehension by some of the readership.

We all know the appx weight and power of the Z, we all have our own battles we have been faced with. The thread was about a major network show featuring Mercedes Benz not just the 63 but the 65 and the SLR, likely the Black series as well.

During a scene filmed on NY STREET Paramount Studios, Hollywood CA
A E63 was being chased by a Z06. The drivers had about 2 weeks seat time in each. I simply walked up and asked each driver which car he liked.

Both responded the Mercedes.

I asked about speed, and got this: "The Merc is faster" I said , faster than the Corvette? "I beat the Z06 light to light more than once". I said wow so the car is comfy and fast , "the ultimate", "it is a rocket sedan".


Thats it, no big deal. We all know the Z06 is lighter which makes it faster , no argument from me. The Z06 is faster, does it win every race against the AMG ? Is it as easy to drive? Is it as comfy? A race is a race, you fail to run the car to its potential you may lose. It was all an opinion and it seems to have insighted some ugly unecessary commentary. Z drivers openly admit at the 1/4 mile drag strip the car is very difficult to keep to the pavement. A couple wheel spins and it makes for a much closer race

I didn't mean to mutate this thread. I just don't see how an E63 could hang with a Z06 light to light. I'm sure it has hapenned somewhere that a Z06 lost, but that don't make the 63 faster. You talk quite the talk, why not line up and show us?

LOL, I was not talking bout you Jangy...

But you repeat what has already been established, why?

I have lined up with the Z06 three different colors 3 different days, 3 different drivers, same result

EDIT: Sorry Jangy but it does appear by answering your post I was blaming you for the transgression. Not my intent. The thread was ruined 3 pages back. Plus your car is faced the wrong direction to race me

Well myself & SAMSSONZ, are going to meet up in a couple weeks CLS63 vs C6 w/dyno, tune cat-back, & CAI, far less power than a C6 Z06 we'll see what happens video will be taken!

Don't know what mods if ANY? Samssonz has? none the less win loose or draw I love this stuff!

PS there will be NO traction problems/excuses from me, just got New rear tires!
