What , no way, M5 is better, is easy to pick up 476 from V8 with kompresor,

[noosee]

Surprize :shock:
It's not true :D

[schnell318]

Well, I was hoping M5 would win but CLS must be quite something to beat the M5.

I would still choose the M5 by the way :D

[bmwmpower]

Vebrauch,thats fuel consumtion, thats not main idea of the car,
BMW

So have you driven any of them?

[Schwalbe]

In spite of the conclusions of the article, for me the BMW E60 M5 is No1...While waiting the future RS6.

[quattrodude]

What an ugly engine cover on that M5... the 5.5K is a way more beautiful engine to look at...

[ZfrkS62]

i think i know who heavily funded that review :wink:

i can't understand the article cuz i don't speak German, but i can't see how anyone in their right..or left for that matter..mind could determine that the CLS is better than the M5 :?

[bmwmpower]

see those numbers , i think CLS is not bad car, but Bmw is better,

i think i know who heavily funded that review

i cant wait for autocar compare test,

[Just_me]

the BMW lost by 2 points, mainreason cause of fuel consumption and the M-drive.

AMS also said that M5 is a sportier car, more driving pleasure and a big fun to drive compared to CLS55. Thats what really matters to me and a reason why I choose M5 over CLS55.

BMwpower, autocar drove the new M5, best sportsaloon they said.

Have you proof of such a thing?

[Sm@ck]

AMS is all about highway cruising.... IF you look at it from that point of view, then it is no surprise that the AMG CLS wins

I am sure "sport auto", would have voted for the BMW.


Edit: I forgot to say "thank you for the scans" they are much appreciated

[rachaderua]

good cars..excelent performances, but i would say just a "sad" thing, they lost a little time, very little but significant, from 140-160 in the acceleration, but it´s good time in both cars. I liked the 0-200 km/h times, great standing start :D

For sure with manual gears, the times could be even more decreased, as the only one sequential gearbox i know faster than manual ones are the F1 gearboxes, but it´s not this case. 8)

[AlexBlaster]

Thanks for scan!

[max911]

Great cars, the CLS would be something so special to beat the M5,

anyway thanks for the superb scans, it was great.

[SPEEDKILLAR]

Thanks phillo55, excellent scan,



ahahahahahahah at the M5 fans :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[ice]

The CLS is a great car, but its strengths are very different from the M5. I see the M5 as the Enzo of super sedans. Its the most visceral, the most sporting. It may be less practical and less relaxed then the CLS(which takes an SLR type approach), but its far faster in the curves and just as fast in staright line.

[blah]

can some one please tell me the point of the CLS??? The interior is straight out of the E-Class, but with a C-Class shifter, and navy, except for the E-Class push button CD Changer. I guess ill never understand this car, to me its an overpriced E-Class with C-Class interior, and almost S-Class Length.

The interior isn't straight out of a E class :roll:

And you are saying it yourself, this car is amazing because its a bit of everything :wink:

[blah]

That interior is straight out the E-Bascially. I see no S-Class really. The shift knob is from the C, see that little compartment by the glovebox, E-Class has that. The Ride hieght management system is from the E-Class in its posistioning. Im not hating on the car, im just wondering what its for? People who want an E-Class with alittle more size?

[blah]

i just noticed more things in this car. The Air Conditioning setup and posistioning is E-Class, the Audio controls on the steering columns is fromt he CLK/SL/CL, the steering wheel looks original, thats about all i see now.
