Default Corvette VS Twin Turbo Mercedes

I'll let the video do most of the talking but me and my buddies were cruising down the highway and happened to run into another friend. The Vette has a 234/246 cam, built 243 heads, kooks LTs ORX and makes ~450rwhp (LS2) and the Mercedes had a full exhaust, intake and tune..making ~700hp at the crank. Chase car is the car in the signature

Mods? And I guess the camera car is the one in your signature?

C6 not impressive if that benz is stock.. in fact... pretty slow considering how much that benz weighs.

honorable death, That Merc looked fairly large, i'm guessing cl or somthing similar but they make so much tq boosted they are basically at peak hp for the whole gear... I'm waiting on the new c63 s model... Its gonna be a beast at only 3600 lbs and 500+ hp and tq stock

It actually looks to be an SL with the retractable roof. CL rear end is considerably wider than that.
