Any W209 CLK 500's or 550's running 13's?
Just curious as to findng out if a 5.0L motor in a 208 CLK or C43 would potentially put these cars in the 13's. Anybody??

Has anyone who purchased the CLK 550 run low 13's or high 12's yet?

Yes!
I'm trying to gauge it against the upcoming New M3!



But I'd also like to know if there are CLK500's running 13's?

Yeah, the 500 can definitely hit the 13's. I'm sure the 550's run low 13's.

yup - http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Be...ag-Racing.html

CLK55's look like they come in at very low 13's and trap at about 109mph. There's no reason that a CLK550 wouldn't be slightly faster.

Tempature REALLY effects my performance, I recorded a 5.28 0-60 in 34 degrees, and 5.8 seconds 0-60 in 90 degrees.

so 5.2-5.8 0-60

The fastest I've gotten in stock trim was a 5.18 0-60. Who knows what I'll get now...I'm sure that with the NOS I'll be hitting between 4.5-5.0 0-60

My times were recorded from a g-tech pro. On the g-tech I also got a 13.7 @ 104mph. All when I was stock.

I can backup these times because of the cars I've beaten.
