I have to disagree with the top speed. The CTS Coupe with 308 HP clocks 155MPH top speed. AM I to believe a car with almost twice the HP, only achieve 1 more MPH?

This car has artificial (electronic) speed governor. It is at 250 kph (155 mph). The 156 mph comes from what's printed in Car & Driver:

I think they were wrong. I removed the 156 so the 155 remains.
Of course, if you "delete" the limiter, it will go a lot faster.

IDK about the CL63, but the CL65 has reached 300 mph on the Autobahn. That is 480 km/h. Bone stock. A 2005 model though. It's very aerodynamic.

@FastestLaps can these be the main pictures for the car as the one currently pictured is a CL500
