2nd place: Mercedes CL 65 AMG

It shows some weaknesses at the race track and so was bet to 2 secs. by the Bentley

What's next?

"Compared to the Lexus LS, we were not impressed with the comfort of Kimmi Raikkonen's Formula One car. However it wins this comparison because its fast! Fuel costs are very high though..."

It's pretty obvious that the CL65 AMG, despite all that power is a luxury-biased GT car with a heck load of power for fast Autobahn cruising. I don't think there are many CL owners who take their car unto the track for some "serious performance driving". They might take the car on the track for some fun, but not serious driving.
