SL65.... it's a bad mo fo

604 hp @ 4,800 rpm
738 lb-ft @ 2,000 - 4,000 rpm
bi turbo V12
9.0 to 1 compression

MSRP $186,775

Mercedes "advertises" 0-60 i 4.2 seconds..... but reality kicks in when someone finds out that MB underestimates their cars with perf, hp, tq, and fuel economy

Sure... it says 604 hp and 738 tq... but in reality people are dynoing these cars with mid 500's rwhp and mid/ high 600's rwtq

4,564 lbs = one heavy mo fo

Weeney 2:65 gears

And yes..... expect mid to high 11 second 1/4 mile with trap speeds in the mid to low 120's

I decent driver (track experience) will expect mid 11's at 125-126 mph.

This is done on the stock 285/30 ZR19 tires/ wheel combo in the back.

Renntech makes a nice upgrade for these cars.... sure you will pay but it is worth it. It willget this 4,500+ lb boat into the low 11's and knock on the 130 mph door....... on 2:65 gears!

Lethal on the highway.... it's achelies heal (sp?) is 1/4 mile??? Just like all MB's... built for the highway.... but mid 11's will keep you happy
