Even the older C2S/C4S numbers in mags are 0-60 in 4.1 and the quarter mile in 12.5-12.6. Those are pretty much in line with my E63. Of course this could start the debate w/ E55 vs E63 but it seems that the consensus is that he who starts in front, stays in front. The E63 is by no means slow.

If you haven't decided on a ride yet consider this, CLK Black Series! It's both of what you are looking for,A Canyon carver with a MB feel. Go test drive one!

E55 then E63, now back to an E55
I see what you are saying. But it wouldn't make any sense if he was talking about a 997TT because he goes on to say "and you can't really use all that power". Why wouldn't you be able to use that power with the 997TT's AWD? That seems to be a much more valid claim against the CL65...even though I personally love to use the CL65's power a good amount of the time. I guess he can settle this by elaborating on his comment.

I believe he is referring to the Porsche, and saying you can't really use all that power (even w AWD) because they spool up so late.....
