Drove my buddy's CLS55 yesterday. - BMW 1 Series Coupe Forum / 1 Series Convertible Forum (1M / tii / 135i / 128i / Coupe / Cabrio / Hatchback) (BMW E82 E88 128i 130i 135i)

Back to back versus my 135i, my car felt faster. Even the owner was like holy s**t! He says my car felt as fast as his previous 997tt cab which I thought was a pretty high remark. He couldn't believe this $40k car was putting out that kind of power!!

Give the CLS55 props though, that thing is a a torque monster! I'm missing this with v81.

I didn't get much seat time behind the boat..err CLS so I couldn't tell you and the 997tt cab is long gone so I'm just going off his comments.

Is your car stock? The CLS 55 runs I believe a 12.6-7 stock no problem.

I can attest to how quick Tuned1's car feels. He is not stock.

^ This cooler weather stint we're currently in really does bring the car alive. Looking forward to Autumn!

Listing what mods you have would help the comparason?

I see where he's coming from. I get to drive a S55 alot and yes it's fast, but my stock 135i was right there with it before my Dinan. I can only imagine what its going to be like now with my Dinan

The AMG series sounds soooo nice though

CLS is a beautiful car, but my heart is always with BMW.
