The C64 did not run cp/m out of the box, because it did not have any kind of Intel 8080 based processor. You could buy a cartridge (iirc) that would allow you to run cp/m, but it was basically bolting a cp/m machine onto the side of the C64.
The C128 had both the C64 processor, and a Z80 processor built in, and it could run cp/m. The floppy drive speed was really lousy though (300 baud serial bus iirc).
