  | C&D: 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG cabriolet  You would think a sport cabriolet fitted with a 5.4-liter V-8 making 362 horsepower would be enough. But no. In these wonderfully hedonistic, power-crazed days, we’re witnessing a horsepower race that makes the muscle-car battles of the 1960s look as tame as waging war with bows and arrows rather than Hellfire missiles. So, the Mercedes-Benz CLK has now emerged with a mighty 6.2-liter V-8 that makes 475 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque. The rival BMW M3 musters a mere 333 horsepower. More @ : C&D Article

| Re: C&D: 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG cabriolet IMO, the current M3 isn't even close to being a rival to the CLK63 AMG. The CLK is way more powerful and luxurious. The C55 is the M3 rival. The CLK63 sits in between the M3 and M6. Its is just more car than the M3, but not quite up to the level of the M6. M
