Just accept the loss and take it like a man :wink: :roll:

Edit: Why the 5-speed auto and not the 7G-tronic in the Merc?

I agree with them both being amazing cars, but wouldn't "taking it like a man" be taking the sportier car.

Agreed. I'm suprised how 0-60, and the braking tests @ 39meters are identical. :shock: also, did they post the slalom results? i don't understand why these reviewers don't post things like 80-120; other tests that are just as an accurate reflection of a cars ability? :?

Thanks philios55 ! :D I liked this video showing two überSaloon.

For those unaware, as was the case with numerous other VOX car videos, this test was based on the auto motor und sport magazine test (heft 23 - 27 Oktober, 2004).

Regarding their conclusions, keep in mind that in some parts of Germany, AMS is known as 'auto Mercedes und sport'. Please note the emphasis on Mercedes and the separation between it and sport...

I'm pretty confident that once Autocar figures both cars, you will see more separation in acceleration between them, even at the lower speeds.

Regarding someones question on why the 5 spd. auto for the Merc. I believe it has to do with the max. torque rating for the 6 spd. was insufficient for the blown V8.

Mercedes doesn't have 6-speed autos.. And from what I've heard the 7G-tronic is going to be available in the supercharged AMG-versions.

the cls 500 and 350 have the 7 speed gearbox,,but they put the 5 speed AMG gearbox in the cls55

love that drift at the start from the CLS55.....woooooo.
These tests are great but I just wish they were longer!
