C63 Coupe runs 3.7 0-60!!!
"With a 0-60 mph time of 3.7 seconds, the torquey C63 slaps a twin-clutch BMW M3 in the face (4.2 seconds) and then laughs out loud to the finish line."

2012 C63 Coupe P31
This is great news. Always knew that Merc under rates their 0-60 times. So if this is the motortrend "best" time then an expected average would be about 4sec? Pretty sweet. Can't wait to get behind the wheel of mine, then drive it in comfort mode at less than 4500rpm for week, then play

Surprisingly, the tires they use aren't that skinny.
I actually measured a 275 Hankook and the OEM 255 Pirelli Pzero with a digital caliper and the Hankooks were only 2mm wider.
Even the Continentals run wide, so in reality it might say 255 but its actually wider.

Very nice times on street tires. This is the P31. Pretty much a tuned base C63.
The best recorded time I have in mine tune only is 0-60 in 3.58. That was with DR's though.
The track prep for that test must have been really good to get 3.7 0-60 on street tires.

The black series should have 305 or 325 in the back IMO
