'19 E63S sedan
Published numbers are
S63: 4.5
S600: 4.5
S65: 4.2
The S65 number seems to be the most conservative, according to the press and owners' experiences. Marketing seems to want a wider gap between the SLR and 65's than engineering does. Of course an SLR will have any 65 for lunch in the curves, but they're closer in a drag than MB lets on.

An example from http://www.caranddriver.com/previews...-cl65-amg.html:
After driving the CL65 ourselves, we think that time must include about a half-second of sitting at the green light admiring a handbag in a nearby storefront.

2008 S63=AMG: Black (Savanna/Cashmere) Kleeman Delimited 200MPH
MB Club - Kansas City Chapter Drag Race event
All,
I am taking my S63 to Heartland Park in Topeka Kansas on the 12 of Sept. for the Kansas City MB Club Drag Night. I will post results. If Kleemann has the exhaust package in the states it should look pretty good. I am scheduled to have Kleemann do the work when we go to Colorado Springs for a week vacation (vacation for wife - Speed upgrade for me and my 63) through Labor Day week.
Kleemann will also delimit my delimited 63 from 186 to 200.
