Here's a video of my dad's '03 ML55 0-60, and I got a horrible time, around 7.5 seconds. It was about 95 degrees that day, the engine was hot from the temperature and the trailer we had just been hauling. He also has heavy 20" brabus wheels too.....here's the video

Never clocked it, but my '98 320 is probably pretty darn close to the claimed 9.0, if not faster--and that's with a measly 215 hp, but weight was light on the '98s before they added more sound deadening, etc.
