March 07 Road and Track follow up test on ML63
What ML were they testing? This is faster than some convertible C6 times I've seen posted by mags! Could it be the 19" tires? Lower the ML like Doctor D and I'm sure the slalom and skid pad numbers would climb.

"So, just how scorching is the new ML63? Well, this 5250-lb. heavyweight reaches 60 mph in 4.5 seconds — quicker than the Porsche Cayenne Turbo and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8. And in the quarter mile, its 13.0-sec. blast at 108.0 mph bests all other SUVs we've tested"

Excellent times for the ML63. The 13.0 second 1/4 mile time is the fastest I have seen recorded by any stock SUV in any publication. The previous best was a 13.2 @ 104.1 by the GC SRT8. The ML63 is a beast.
