C63 AMG
i was joking a little bit but at the same time I was trying to make a point. The C63 is a sedan car and not really built for the drag strip. The engineers did a $-h-tty job leaving bicycle tires in the back and pretending to hold 443lb-tq.
Also, at almost 4000lbs there is no excuse either so that is why I am not surprise that SLR is much better suited for straight line acceleration. After the C63 also lacks on aerodynamic, it is virtually a brick.

The SLR is not such a light-weight car either.... I remember one member weighted his and it came out to 3800 lbs
but anyways, this SLR is modified not stock, so tires/wheels are different, and I'm sure a bunch of other things as well
