They do according to their website, though I have never heard of anyone actually with it. It appears to have very similar specs to the RD Sport and Dinan strokers. Which makes me wonder if they aren't sourcing the parts from the same place.

 

It is such a shame it costs so much to mod an M5. You have to spend huge money for big gains.

 

Forgive my noobness

What are the benefits of the Quaife LSD? WIll this stop the traction control from always kicking in?

 

MB AMG interior is much nicer, exteriors great too. CLS55 is an great vehicle to mod. Go with the 55, i dont think you will regret it, that things a beast!

 

wow u really hav a tough 1 on your hands....imo from driving both cars the M5 is more fun to drive. the cls55 has the nicer interior imo and more relaxed looks....as for modding the cars kleeman is a good chioce and for the M dinan has some nice stuff for it like stroking etc. though idk how much it goes for.....if you want to do some hard driving get the M...just my thoughts

 

I've had a CL500 and several M5's.......the BMW's just always feel sportier to me......just more connected

 

sorry but there arent many m5's with 8k in mods that can touch what you can do to the cls55 power wise.

driving wise, the bmw is a bit more nimble around turns, feels a bit more like a sportscar

the cls looks great to me, especially with an upgrade in power

 

I am leaning towards the CLS I think... Black Exterior, Black wheels with chrom lip, Lowered and the Kleeman Package

Can someone please explain what are the benefits of repalcing the LSD on a CLS?

If I could get some good mods for the M5 (like a supercharger) for my $10k budget then I would go for the M5, otherwise I think it has to be the CLS.

Any Idea what sort of numbers a CLS with the Klemman package does?

 

I had this same dilemma a few months back. The M5 is more fun to drive, more agile, high revving, and a blast to drive. The CLS55 is heavier, but felt more powerful and fun straight line. Im waiting for the new M5 and CLS to come out to see how I like them before pulling the trigger. I honestly dont think you can go wrong with either.

 

I owned a CLS55 Kleemann K2, new M3 tuned to 460bhp and 997.2. The AMG always puts a big smile on my face as a daily driver with its big torque. It is a car with 2 very different personality in one, very comfortable daily driver eats the miles with all the comfort options especially my massaging seats. In the other hand when you wanted some passing power, just crack that throttle open and wow the endless amount of torque just make any passing simple. Perfect for my daily drive and returns me 20 mpg. My M3 is my weekend toy and trackday car. Love the high reving nature of the M's engine just sounds like a formular one car. After adding a Akaprovic exhaust Gruppen M induction and custom remap, this car is so addictive to drive, every secound I am trying to rev the engine to redline. The launch control is also addictive to use. The 997 still being run in at present.

My conclusion is the 55 Kompressor cars are more suited for daily road use and the M cars are a exciting toy especially for track use.

I have found this AMG for sell in UK, seems to have everything you wanted. Black on black, Kleemann K4, and LSD

cls all the way, just for the styling alone...you simply see too many M5's around and BMW just redesigned the 5 series, so the new M5 should be reveled in less than 9 months or so.

CLS is simply more rare, and classy...but both are incredible cars anyways

I DD a CLS55 and get so many heads turning, a lot more than i expected.

 

What mods have you done on the CLS?

Post some pics please.

 

I like the M because its more of a sports car and I can never own an automatic car with tons of performance. A DCT/Egeat/SMG etc. is a diffetrent story but a regualr slushbox NO WAY boring as HELL. The choice is simple in my eyes.

 

Will do but there is 2 ft of snow outside so the CLS sits in the garage next to the lambo The CLS has renntech goodies, CF lip and, dropped on 360 forged wheels Here is a preview with just wheels

 

Owning two E60 M5's you know where I stand.
Now on the video from Russia it appears the M5 beat the MB cls55 w/ Kleemann kit.
The M5 is a top end car. Never bet against it on a high mph run.
I have never lost against a cls55.
The future also looks good with the new F10 M5. Twin turbo V8, think of the tuning possibilities.

M5 ALL THE WAY!
