    I think it's a weird comparison but whatever. I'd pick the M6, it's more powerful and performs better than other two and I've always kinda liked the BMWs.

    M6 vs CLS vs A8 W12

    The M6, of course. It looks better than the other two cars and it has the most powerful engine.

    Strange comparo. A Gran Tourer vs. a 4-doored coupe vs. a straight sedan.

    I'd pick the CLS for the looks and the M6 for the performance. Depends on what what i need the car for.

    The audi and the BMW don't look special enough for me. The mercedes does and has more than enough power

    I don't get your point.
    The AMG engine of the CLS 55 is quite nice, just like the most of the AMG engines.

    If you wanna make a fair comparo, then you should compare The M5 with the CLS (or the E 55) and the RS6
    or the A8 6.0 with the S 600 and the 760i...

    He came dancing across the water
    With his galleons and guns
    Looking for the new world
    In that palace in the sun
    On the shore lay Montezuma
    With his cocoa leaves and pearls
