Tough call, especially when you consider the differences between the Merc and the Corvette - the Merc's just a touring car, and the Corvette's a class spec Sports/Le Mans car - kinda like comparing an F3 to an F1 car.

I don't know the specs but I would suggest in real life the Merc would be less powerful and considerably heavier.

isn't the Merc lighter?
 
Oops - see what happens when you don't research?

Minimum weight for DTM cars (ie. the Merc) is 1050kg - Class C Euro GT cars (ie. the Corvette) run at 1150kg.

I don't have the power stats, but I'd be interested to see hp, engine sizes (the Merc only runs a 4 litre V8) and wheel sizes.

I'm not done yet! :D
