Another new weird comparison that doesnt make sense but fun nonetheless. I expect CLK63 to be faster in acceleration and on track but B7 more comfortable choice.

Yeah I think it was just in good fun since both cars are hitting the market around the same time.

I just saw the whole clip (but with no sound). As I said the CLK63 accelerate faster but I was shocked the B7 did so well. Closer than I thought it should be .

The B7's just wicked, it soothes some of the nerves that stem from the absence of a M7. Are there any other tuners making the 7er a sporty beast too?

Interesting test.

Both are magnificent cars! In some other test they said that the 7er handles like a 5er-sized car. However if I had to choose between these two, I'd take the CLK.

of course I would take the CLK63 as well, Im a sporty guy, and I dont have the same love for 7er/S and A8 like others on this board have.
But I wouldnt say no to the B7, its a comfortcruiser and the car will take you to your goal fast, comfty and with class.

The CLK BS is hot ,would've been better if they tested the S63 against the B7
