I don't find either particularly attractive, but I'll probably take the bimmer.

"M6 is powered by a 5.5-liter, 550-hp V10 linked to a seven-speed sequential-manual gearbox. "

My money would go for the M6 but why does that CL have 4 doors, I thought the CL was a 2 door S-Class

That's not a CL. I believe it's called the Vision. I'll check later on that name, it's in some of the latest car mags I have. The mag pics look much better, probably the best looking benz sedan. They gave it a coupe shape...the problem with that is there is no headroom in the rear. The interior is absolutely gorgeous. DaimlerChrysler is not 100% sure they are going to build it but I'm sure they will if it gets lots of attention at the autoshows.

The link to autoweek names the car the CLS.

For a minute, I thought the MB's rear looks like the Lincoln Mark VIII. Between the 2, the M6 is ok. What's that tumor thing growing on the back of the skirts?

Never liked the 6 series...Too fat around the edges for a coupe....MB on the other hand, looks rather nice....

Just looking at the CLS-Class makes me think about what Brabus would do to it. Where would it go? In the Benz line-up I mean. Between the E-Class and S-Class? Seems right.
