Porsche Turbo Stage 4, Cayenne S ... gone C43, C32, ML55 & Ducati 999.
I would say the E55 is faster and quicker than the CL55.

E55

Having driven both around the track I can attest to the E55 being faster. The CL55 sounds better though.

E55 is faster, we tried it. The CL65 however would be faster.
