Great 1/4 mile time... but isn't that trap number kind of low for a 10.79?

360 Modena TT
that thing moves but it's still a GTR . i'm not trying to knock it but they are built to be quick from the factory . to me , it takes the fun out of it . people see a GTR and think it's fast because it is a known fact . people see a litttle C like mine and don't think anything until WOT

i love my little grocery getter rocket

+63 I don't think we need to bias to say the C looks much better from the factory than the GT-R

GT-R's performance numbers are quite staggering though.

Im sure if AMG made its own version of AWD TT it could do something similar. .

That's just insane. Absolutely insane.

Drove a 2013 on 4th of July weekend. Stunning car. Crazy performance. Did not inspire me one bit. The looks, the way it sounded, the way the steering felt, throttle, everything.

I miss my C63 a lot - especially the exhaust noise. But I had to sell it. I just couldn't deal with the traction issues especially with our Vancouver weather. Believe me if AMG had an AWD like a CLS63 4matic, I would have been all over it like white on rice.

And with the midpipe and tune, the GT-R does perform insanely well and sounds fantastic to boot (still not as good as the AMG though!)

I find there are to many computers and gadgets on the GT-R. The car is extremely fast and handles extraordinarily well but the car doesn't have the feel that I'm after nor does it feel like I'm actually in control.

No. You are used to seeing high horsepower/low traction cars run way faster MPH than the ETs would indicate they are capable of. The GTR is not traction limited and this is closer to reality.

For example, I have a full on Super Stock NHRA race car that runs 1.42 60 ft, 10.5 at 126 every time down the track. It hooks, pulls the wheels, and hits redline exactly at the finish line. No variables. I even have an air shifter and only one shift....

At 127, the ET should really be more like 10.4 or so, you can see the 60 ft is only 1.55, which is great for a stock street car, but why the ET is HIGH for the MPH.....

Simply amazing AWD technology.
Reminder to myself to not race one from a dead spot as public humiliation will occur lol.
