E 55 v CLS 55 v M5.....

[humaid]

I know my topic is pretty general, but I just read something interesting today I couldn't kinda believe.

Most articles/reviews I've read pits the M5 against the CLS 55, and even though the CLS might have a more direct steering and a better tuned suspension etc. than the E 55, what it doesn't have, surprisingly, is a lower Drag Coefficient.

According to Mercedes' own site data, the E has a 0.28 DC while the CLS has a 0.3.

So although the CLS might look more aerodynamically efficient, it's not.

I guess that explains the E55s better sprint times... also shows the CLS is slightly Form over function... why would they do that?????
