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

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

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

i think i know who heavily funded that review

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

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.
