| Re: [Auto Zeitung] Continental GT vs. CL600 - Crazy acceleration figures! I don't like the interior color combinations on both cars!  But both rides are hot as hell. And FAST!

| Re: [Auto Zeitung] Continental GT vs. CL600 - Crazy acceleration figures! 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. |

| Re: [Auto Zeitung] Continental GT vs. CL600 - Crazy acceleration figures! 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...

| Re: [Auto Zeitung] Continental GT vs. CL600 - Crazy acceleration figures! Do people really buy cars like these based on which is couple of a tenths of a sec faster? Is that even relevant? |

| Re: [Auto Zeitung] Continental GT vs. CL600 - Crazy acceleration figures! 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. |

| Re: [Auto Zeitung] Continental GT vs. CL600 - Crazy acceleration figures! I actually the Bentley's interior better here, but I need not tell anyone here which car I prefer overall! M
