a couple car magazines have already tested the CLS63 at 3.8, while the M5 has been tested anywhere from 3.7-4.1

also about a year after the M6 GC actually goes on sale, the CLS63 will have AWD (which they stated will only add 112 pounds) and a power boost (550 hp for base and 575 for performance package) according to recent articles. Mercedes is expecting the new E63 and CLS63 to have 3.4 second 0-60 times.

right now i have a battle inside myself: on the one hand my love to the rear wheel drive on the other, the astonishment on those numbers.

Would I buy a AWD MB if it means those numbers?
