You didn't ask for magazine road test times, but FWIW, Car & Driver ran 13.4 @ 106.

Fear not, that's still slower than the 12.5 @ 116 they recorded for the W211 E55 AMG.

2006 E55 Black
Thanks DWP. I think that's a solid number, I have seen that quoted on DragTimes.com too. I'm thinking about E550 vs E63 and not sure the E63 is worth it... I've seen E63 times of around 13.1... so based solely on drag race speed the E63 is not worth $25k in my mind over the E550. I know there are other considerations, of course. Thanks again.

Are you replacing your 2006 E55, or adding to the stable?
