I'm not complaining. I was hoping they would come out with a diesel version.

You have to keep in mind that the CLS will definitely weigh significantly more than a regular 5 series...
So the 20Nm isn't really, well, much.
Still a damn good looking car though.

I know this is a stupid question to ask here, but anyways, Whats the difference between Nm and lb-ft Torque. And if I want to explain someone What is Torque, then what should I say? I mean in layman terms, not technicalities please. I again apologise for asking this here, but as it was being discussed it just struck me.

Anyway....for me its difficult to get which engine is going to be better since both brands are very brilliant when making diesel engines, in fact, one the one hand, the battle is draw; for instance the BMW is more powerful, and the merc has more torque......anyway......until today, the biggest difference between two engines has been the noise, that the merc is more silent, and i trust that the main difference between the two engines is going to be the in terms of silence, that the merc is going to continue being more silent, and softer than the BMW
