Finally some info besides the one posted by Jabba , this from the official Top Gear homepage :
The Stig power laps the amazingSpyker
Jeremy puts the Mercedes CL65 and the Spyker
Richard and James go mini-cabbing in London
Speed cameras are under discussion in the studio
The Mercedes CL65 is pitched against the Bentley Continental GT and the Aston Martin DB9
This week's start in the reasonably priced car is Lionel Richie
Seems like interesting Shit , the Spyker wow ! never saw this in action !!! , the CL65 !!! Holy shit !!! , Rochas and James Mini.cabbing , that must be so fucking funny as the Speed cameras , the MB CL65 against BGT and DB9 !!!
This episode material could do an entire 5th gear season !!!

Yup if it will be a complete group test it will rock!  and of course the Merc will never win against such perfect car as the DB9

LOL I should receive it the next days, but I saw the cover of course anyway if it wasn't the DB9 they fav, please tell me it was at least the Conti GT oh wait no, don't tell I want to read it myself but still as for TG, I don't see how the CL65, even with 1000, 2000, or 10'000 Nm could be overall a better car

Well... the comparison didn't include the CL55, but the SL55 AMG.
Obviously, Jeremy is different to the guys on the evo team, so his opinion may differ...
I won't spoil the suprise for you... you are so excited it would be mean

LOL just tell me who did the test maybe it seems one of their 2 or 3 days long tests, so not a single person testing them at least and no matter who win, evo is always a pleasure anyway

well Jeremy owns an SL55 but still said the DB9 is the coolest car ever so unless he gets the derestricted CL65 (which will give it some points) he should go with the Aston since he doesn't like the BCGT

This episode is looking very promising!! looking forward to what the spyker can do and also how the cl65 will stack up against the other two. And it will be great to see the db9 in action once again!!
and with james and richard mini cabbing, it should be great!
