actually I saw both the new E and maybe the CLA they both were cruising together in venice Ca 2 weeks ago. They had all the covering on them no badges but manufacture plates. the CLA was white underneath and the E was grey

How do they stack up to a twin turbo CLS63 in a drag race?

That little engine is getting pushed very hard. There is much more potential in the 5.5L engine. Impressive none the less.

That CLS63 was sandbagging, IMO

downpipe & tune will probably bring some nice power... just when you think they wring out an engine, tuners surprise everyone...


look at that Alpha GTR whodathunk a V6 could do that!?

one car at a time
^^ Todd - You do know there are turbo'd 4 cylinder street cars putting down more than 1,000 hp, right ??? They are not the most fun to drive on the street, but they can put down serious power....Personally I think the sweet spot is ~600 whp with a turbo'd 4, but I am biased ....

yup - I just think it's wild when you see a little car with crazy power like that... 360HP is no slouch in a smaller car, this could get interesting
