Cl500 Amg

Well i raced one tonite and i was just wondering what is up with those cars? We looked them up and we couldnt find them. So my question is, what do they run in the 1/4 and what their numbers are. Thanks, Zack

Re: Cl500 Amg

Its not in there...it was a CL500 AMG...it was AWD and it was two door. Not sure on the year but it was either a 03 or 04 not a new new one. It also have quad exhaust. I really wanna know what the hell is up with this car. I had like three on him but when i went into 5th...he flew on past me like nothing!

Re: Cl500 Amg

Yeah im not to sure about that car anymore. It was def. AWD and two door, but then again i remeber him laughing and saying, "yeah CL500, thats right" And also he said something bout changing around the badging. We thought that he was just joking around. But i guess not, cuz he was asking us where everyone races at and stuff. Oh well....guess ill have to ask him the next time i see him then. Thanks

Re: Cl500 Amg

AMG is to Mercedes what Lingenfelter is to Corvettes, if that answers your questions. Some of those cars can do 200+ ungoverned.

Re: Cl500 Amg

Well i finally found out what was up with that car. If it were and 03 or 04 then it was a v12 making 469hp and if it were an 05 then it was at 493hp. So im guessing it was the 469hp one because i was spraying and that puts me around 400 to the wheels.

Re: Cl500 Amg

There is NO AWD CL Class Merc and there is NO CL500 AMG.
Is either one CL500 or CL55 AMG (none of them is AWD design).Cl55 AMG has 493 hp @ 6,100 rpm, 516 lb-ft @ 2,750 - 4,000 rpm and CL500 has 302HP. Cl500 are SLOW; CL55 Amg are fast; around 4.5 sec from 0-60mph.

CLK are even in the AMG form arent that fast (362 HP, and 0-60 in 5 sec.)

Actually, I believe AMG is a more "in house" tuner for mercedes. I think it would be more like SVT is to Ford, or maybe even the M series is to BMW.
