AMG can't build an NA engine that can compete with M engines, so they stick in a supercharger and say their cars are faster. BMW could simply do the same, but they don't out of principle.</span>
im not a huge MB fan, but I actually like that one a lot. especially the rims.

They say M5 is a little faster and handles a little better, but the Benz is a lot more comfortable. I didn't know that 5.5L engine puts out 700 lb./ft of torque.
Anyway, at the end they say it's almost dead even, but the Benz is better.
how so? that m5 owns that cls. beyond the comfort. the bmw pretty much takes every catagory. and the 5.5l if forced induced .. thats why it produces those numbers. however it still cant beat bmws natural asipired engines.

Yeah, I know it's FI, but I didn't think it would have that much torque. Don't ask my why they think the benz is better. I'd pick the M5 and save some money, but there's still the SL65 AMG that I'd take over those two though

now now calm down before we go making fun of people...
lets make fun of how ugly the benz is lmao...that think looks like a pregnant guppy made aerodynamic...im sorry i just have hated benz forever...its the bastard german car that a lot of german car enthusiasts dont like to claim...ok nuff said...
Benz's arent tht bad and that benz put down some serious numbers there...but me personally...just cant do it..im too anti luxury for benz...i like the M5 because its a lil more cut and dry...i like performance and could almost care less about luxury...bmw knows the limits on luxury and always to be surpassed by performance... (keep it simple..)

THAT benz IS ugly, seriously, whoever designed it wasn't feeling good.
However, this 604 hp monster looks better than anything else in it's class.
