An amazing performance by Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG during a drift session of "The Ring". Nurburgring is the most famous stretch of seven minute fun in the world! Drive as fast you can down hills, around long corners, tight corners, uneven corners, and even jumps! See the graphiti zoom by as you slide sideways drifting into Nurburgring oasis. This is the playground where the world's best supercars come to test their abilities.

More Nurburgring fun!

Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG specifications:

  •  5.5 liter V8 engine
  • 354 hp @5500 RPM
  • 391 tq @ 3000 RPM
  • 4116 lb. curb weight

Mercedes-Benz vehicles are built with the Autobahn, and Nurburgring performance in mind. High speed, long use of upper RPM's, and various angles of approach make these stretches of roadway very troublesome for vehicles unprepared. One trip around Nurburgring, your vehicle needs repair; it's that intense! An amazing performance by the Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG in the following footage. Superb!
