2012 CLS63 - Best settings for 0 - 60 times???
Seems like there are so many combinations that I am curious which combo works best when I line up against someone who wants to dance.

Fast cars in general....
For me, it looks like the following combo works the best only when the tires are warm.
S+
Sport handling
Comfort suspension
light turns green, stomp the gas pedal.

That means one single push of the ESP button. I run the same thing as Greg from a dig but I dont necessarly mash it and go as there is too much wheel spin (I have a stock PP car). Its more of a feather roll out approach and them hit it.
The ESP pushed once allows for the full compliment of torque. Since 2010 when I got my first W212 AMG I have driven with in sport mode or completely off. Only keep it on if you are new to this type of power or its raining. The car is clearly more powerful with it off or in sport mode. You can literaly feel the tq change.

a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
I set up the same way, except I'll hold down ESP until it's completely 'Off'.
I've tried Sport+ but still get the electrical nanny intervening too much.
It may have been the road condition at the time but can't be sure.
Oh, and regarding launch control, or as MB calls it, Race Start, just forget about that feature. I think AMG needs to research this further.

After seeing a few vids of the launch control, it does seem that Benz needs to work on it a bit. Maybe it's the lack of LSD so the massive wheel spin makes it bog real bad.
Was kinda hoping the launch would look something like this vid. STAY WITH ME...I know it's the mighty 4 wheel drive Aventador. Just notice that she bogs just ever so slightly then kicks hard.
Then listen to the super bog on the newTT. Needs some work
Still love it and yes it will be mine soon!!
