I don't like the interior color combinations on both cars!  But both rides are hot as hell. And FAST! |

There is something dodgy about these figures. Normally, the 55K and 600's do 0-200kph in around 14.5-15.5 seconds. The times shown here are more akin to what the F430 or SL600's run. |

That 4.2 0-100 time seems reasonable, given that the SL600 runs a similar time, as well as the 55k engines. Even though that color combo is really ugly for the CL interior, I prefer it overall to the Bentley... |

Do people really buy cars like these based on which is couple of a tenths of a sec faster? Is that even relevant? |

Got dammit the CL600 is fast. Accelerates as fast as Gallardo. That is why you should bow when ever you see the number 600 at the back of a Benz. |

I actually the Bentley's interior better here, but I need not tell anyone here which car I prefer overall! M |
