Talk to me about 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL600
« on: December 06, 2013, 03:50:57 PM »

Been looking for a new/Used DD under 20k

The thought of a v12 twin turbo DD sounds great to me. It has a claimed 493hp and 590 ft/lbs.

Seen a bunch of 30,000-55,000 mile for around 15k

Rhmt thoughts?

There is a guy that runs one at the local drag strip on Friday night street legals. Runs mid 11's, from the little I have chatted with him he has some sort of tune, and upped the boost.

He has run a low 11 with it, but didn't want to put a roll bar in it, so I has dialed it back to run 11.50's.

Get yourself a Benz that's a diesel  :noel:

I had one and it was reliable as hell and lasted longer than the body of the car.  Hell it actually had a busted piston or something at one point and ran like a champ still on 5 cyl.  I couldn't fix it at the time due to a combination of lacking car knowledge and cancer. lol  :P :'(  Then there's my times driving them when Im back in Iceland.  I was there last xmas and got to experience my cousins mercedes 07 something in the snow.  It was diesel. (diesel is a popular choice in iceland when regular gas is ~$9 gallon and diesel is cheaper and supported by the gov/regulations)

Even though the Benz I had was an '87 300SDL, it was from an era where it wasn't built completely like shit and it was the tits!  Mine was made in West Germany  8) :noel: :evil: :Jew:
