|          Love them both: a Brooklands and a CL 600 with AMG sportpackage would be a dream garage!

| CL seriously need the AMG package. In some angles the car looks plain and strange. And the Bentley, not a fan of it.

| Imo the Bentley is a clear winner here! The looks and prestige of a car in this segment matter more than how technically advanced is..

| Wrong colour for the CL but I love them both equally as much, definetly my two favorite luxury coupes. The Audi S5 should be tossed in there as well. The CL looks better in dark colours:    |

| The CL is easily the better car, but the Bentley is more of a car....a "motorcar" as they would call it. Old world and old-school, lower tech, gorgeous and an interior to die for. The CL needs the AMG kit to looks its best so I'd take the Bentley, it is simply the more bespoke/special "motorcar". M
