The Corvette ZR1 and Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG with Evotech performance package are two very fast vehicles. The Corvette ZR1 is the most expensive and fastest production Corvette ever produced by GM! The Corvette ZR1 features a huge 6.2 liter Eaton supercharged engine that can run the standing mile at blistering speeds. The Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG is a high end luxury vehicle that features a comparable 6.0 liter V12 engine by AMG. Considering the size, luxury options, and capability the CL65 AMG does very well against the mighty Corvette ZR1.
Corvette ZR1 specifications:
- 6.2 liter supercharged V8
- 638 hp @ 6500 RPM
- 604 tq @ 3800 RPM

Chevrolet's Corvette ZR1 is a mechanical masterpiece second to none. The true power and performance of a huge, supercharged V8 is amazing! The raspy exhaust combined with supercharger whine is a symphony of American craftsmanship. The mighty V8 is designed to run long hours of high RPM due to it's marine use background. Originally designed by Mercury, this 6.2 liter supercharged is one amazing engine! The king of Corvettes has arrived, and it's named ZR1. Read about 250+ mph original ZR1 "The Sledgehammer".
2010 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG specifications:
- 6.0 V12 engine
- Twin turbo
- 604 hp @ 4800 RPM

Mercedes-Benz is very good at building vehicles that are just as fast as they are luxurious. Exotic wood and leather interior complimented by chrome and digital accessories, each Mercedes-Benz product is unique in design and technology. Fiber optics, safety systems, and excellent performance technology is a favorite amongst the true Mercedes-Benz enthusiasts. I am very impressed by the CL65 AMG! The Evotech package takes modifications a step further, see their website for more information about Evotech performance.
