My clk55 does 4.5 but it weighs 3400lbs

Actually that's Mercedes being a bad publicist, being too conservative with there performance figures. To be honest it's more like guessing for them, whereas Nissan for example, tests there cars numerous times and put there best time as the figure they advertise. The old slk55 with 355hp can easily get 4.5 without a launch even though Mercedes claims it to be 4.7 , so for the new one with over 400hp them saying 4.5 will probably mean less than 4.3

the new stock slk 55 amg goes up from 0 to 100 in 4,5!

Hell, I can get almost that in an slk 350. (friend works at a car dealer) We were getting (5mph rolling starts) to 60 in about 5 sec flat in the slk 350 we were testing. Straight off the line, the best we could get was 5.8 sec and a little of that was due to car's rear tires breaking loose. Leaving on the nannies (esc and trac control I think - may have been called something else since its a merc), it seems like they limit power way too much making for a really dull takeoff.

5.2 sec? I was expecting road and track to be beter drivers than that lol. This car should easily be running low 4s
-

How the hell do they make it weigh so much? Holy crap.

@GNoble4 This is because Ferrari and Lamborghini or any other expensive and exclusive car owners are mainly posers ;) Come on what is more exciting even for you...clicking a button.. or pushing the clutch ,sliding the gear in and releasing the clutch back in?

"or any other Driver for that matter"
Debatable. The first slushboxes were just that. But have you heard that both Ferrari and Lamborghini have just done away with the manual tranny altogether?
@xchrisbobisx But corvettes are for tasteless old guys with a mustache and a small penis, benz is style
