I call those two engines about the same size and the Caddy has 36 more hp and the G37 has 62 more hp.
MB with all this F1 technology etc.. could easily make 300hp in a large V6

Pass, if I were into German cars I'd ge the 3 series. I read in car and driver the optioned C class cost just as much as a optioned 335i. The 335i will smoke the C class and looks better. For some reason I can see a lot of Asian and Mexican Americans driving the new C class though...don't really know why?

The car is actually quite nice. I got a chance to sit in one when Mercedes-Benz came to my work for an 08 product review and they had one in the parking lot to check out. Overall inside and out i thought it was a very sharp looking car. I would buy one.
