It's called "target market". MB values luxury over performance. Typical AMG owner makes well over 200k/yr, over 50, and is interested in a high-class, comfortable auto. You would be shocked if you knew how much the sound deadening on the average MB weighs. It's nothing like a vette.

doesn't the CTS-V compete with the M5, E63? I know it's around the same price as the M3, C36, etc.

Yeah, seems like the primary goal for the car is to knock down the M5... Things are looking pretty favorable for it to do so too.

We have been testing the new c63 @ work. It's pretty damn impressive, heavy, but very fast for a stock car. I have the non-AMG model, and it blows my car out of the water.
