the cl55 is a supercharged v8 with the same hp #'s as the cl600 but the cl600 comes with a twin turbo v12 which has a lot more potential than the supercharged v8 in my opinion. but from the looks of the pic its prolly the cl55 cuz the 600 has a big v12 badge on the side. beautiful german engineering right there!

i saw him out there a few weeks ago. he took the traction control off and he spun all the way through 4th (HE CLAIMED). but i did see him fish around a bit. needless to say he still hit a 13.9 spinning.

i think that might be just the plain CL600 12 cyl......i was looking up the CL55 and CL65 AMG and they both have different wheels, badging and not as much chrome trim .....but both are within 4.5-4.7 0-62mph .....good for 12's

And he'd have to sit at the end of the track for like 10 or 12 seconds till you caught up.

the 55's come with the amg 5 stars. and it looks like there is badging on both sides of the rear....if that is the case then the only mb cars with badging on both sides are the AMG cars.
