CLK-Class (C209) CLK63 to eat M6????


The Mercedes-Benz C209 is the second generation CLK-Class, launched in 2002. The car was available in both hardtop coupé (C209) and in soft-top convertible (A209). Although its design and styling was derived from the E-Class, the mechanical underpinnings were based on the smaller C-Class. It was succeeded by the E-Class C207. Production: 2001–2009.
I'm sure the CLK63 might be a killer, but I hope the next Generation is more aggressive. Give the whole car line up an S-class make over (except the outstanding and drop dead beauty known as the CLS).

CLK63 is a big disappointment in my book. Look at this autoexpress test: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/autoexpressnews/202791/auto_express_greatest_drives.html. One of the slowest cars around the track despite all that power. Way slower than a 335 on run flats, even slower than a Mazda 6 . If that is not one crappy handling car, not sure what is.

Yep, SportAuto got same result vs the 335i on Hockenheim.
And I just now found out about the monstrous power/torque advantage over the 335i, and it also P Zero (Rosas I belive) tyres.
I tought the 63 had way less power/torque.
