Sieg,

Well, as you know the old Z-28 was 302 cid.

The new one of course is a 427.

Driving the very highly regarded 6.2L n/a V8 in a semi-dated platform or a 4.0L TT V8 in the new '15 AMG C-class.

"Well, according to me. I have driven the CLS63, E63 with the TT motor. I have driven the S6 with the turbo motor and a 550i with the turbo motor.

They all sound like crap but the Benz is the most acceptable of them. They are not in the same league as the NA V8. Never said they were slow, mind you, but the aural, soul tingling experience will pale in comparison."
