It really shouldn't be close at all if this is a 2013 GT-R. These things are running low 11's and have even dipped into the 10's stock. C63 BS should be high 11's stock.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
Agree GTR will likely prevail as mentioned since they are in different league. Look at GTR's ranking (esp the '12 MY) on Top Gear's record list and you will see why all the top dogs in the automotive world are running scared--not a Ferrari faster than the GTR on the current list.

C63 BS, GLA45
It'll get spanked straight line or road course. I'm in the process of doing a video review of both cars once I put proper street tires on the BS for a more fair comparison. Even a '11 GTR will run circles around my BS.

Well, I reckon the the GTR would certainly be a much faster than the B.S., so, in terms of "speed", the GTR would be well ahead.
But really, I don't think any real comparison can be made, because they are two different sorts of cars.

Im not saying it wont replicate it but most mags have the GTR running 11 to 11.1
Not question though and I agree it will walk the C63 BS in every way. I would be surprised if a stock C63 BS gets below an 11.9 on street tires.

WWMIndy just ran 11.990 @ 116.29 with a 1.829 60' on street tires inflated to 42 psi. His mods are tune, filters, ROWs, and catback exhaust.

My C63 even with a tune on street tires on the street couldnt get under a 12 Vbox. It just spins to much.

You can't disqualify just because it shoots down your point
Even the cars that are runnin 11.0s -11.10s are trappin 125 so the only difference is the 60 foot

its a fail if the black series cant compete with the gtr. especially around the track. its the flagship offering from amg and is 20-30K dollars more expensive. and im sure its probably no more comfortable to drive than the gtr.
obviously it looks classier, but...
