CL-S auto or 6MT vs. 4.4i X5?

Sorry this isn't an actual story, I just need your opinions on how my girlfriend's X5 would fare against a stock 2nd gen CL. Anyone here with any experience with the SUV? My love for CL's is undying and after my first gen I see myself in a TL-s, or Cl-s... but there's a youngin here that thinks his stock CL (I don't know what tranny) is untouchable. I remember my first ass kicking on the street was really necessary, I had a fast car... but losing that day taught me some road manners. I just want to pass on some of those humbling road manners to this guy, and the only fast car I have access to is the X5, my first gen is... well.... not gonna make it happen! If he wins, his head will blow up bigger than a balloon, and nothing will be accomplished. Thanks everyone.

it says 4.4 in the title.

the 6mt cl-s would win.


an auto cl-s vs. 4.4 would be a closer race. the cl-s should still win though.

Motor Trend gave the X5 4.4 a "6.7 from 0-60." In the 1/4 they did 15.2@ 91mph.

It will be close but a MT or AT CL-S should win. Just like mattg said...

hands down CL-S. U would actually be better off if it was a 6MT, cause kids usally can't drive. Look at the taillights of the car u can usally tell if it is an auto if the taillights are all red. but if they are white and red then it could b either

hmmm, thanks guys I appreciate the time and help.... looks like someone esle will have to teach him his manners!

Wow, I've never driven a CL-s, just a CL and TL no type S, you all have some damn fast luxury cars, because my gf's X5 isn't too slow imo.
