CLS hauls ass at -14 F.
Of course I let the engine and tranny warm up before I jumped on it. Felt like a whole different engine was under the hood.
I love that dense air.

Yep every ten degrees drop equals 1% more horsepower, so from 70 (SAE test temp. I think) down to -14 is 84 degrees less divided by 10 equals 8.4% more power, or at the crank for a Type-S thats 260 times 8.4% or nearly 22 more horses for free! This should be about right......

No snow tires here just the shitty stockers but i'm still able to get some decent grip out there.
