Lol. If that really happened, then I'd say "What a car the M5 is". It kept up with a V12 Biturbo!!! That's something impressive

the cl600 is a low 12 second car, around the same as an e55 and slightly faster than the e63. it's got great potential because with a simple ecu tune, it turns into a low 11 second car. they are impressive!

i don't own a cl but i'm sure it's capable of 200mph with an ecu tune. contrary to local belief, mb's 5 speed is no slouch at high speeds...just ask the f430 f1 owner that couldn't keep up with me at 150!

maybe on the analogue speedometer but i'd be willing to wager that the digital speedo goes just as high on the 600.

In US a CL600 is factory limited to 130mph (as is the S600).
A simple ECU mod raises the limiter to 186mph and additional 60hp.
