Low 12's to high 11's was the 'average' for stock previous 2 V8 gen C63's so yes it has very good performance.

Muh buddies 1997 Honduh wood smoke it....yeeeeeee haaaaaw!

Awesome car. I just want to be the first one to talk about my "buddy's car" that is most certainly faster than yours even if it is a bucket of bolts covered in rust.

Dynamic engine mounts per MB option description,

Computer-controlled dynamic engine mounts further elevate performance. They're filled with magnetorheological fluid that can be stiffened progressively via electrical current. By individually optimizing their support, they can maximize handling precision in extreme driving, yet deliver smooth refinement in normal driving.
Driver 2,
That's excellent performance numbers.
I notice that your build included the DEM option,
question, do you think that even thought you were in a quarter mile (straight line) event, the DEM helped with the time?
Thanks for sharing,

And was you in Race mode or Sports+ mode?
I am planning to order the CLE 53 Premium Plus in April but debating whether to get the AMG Pro performance option as it comes with race mode and bucket seats.

But you can't get the bucket seats with the massage option in the UK.

If you was in race mode how does it compare to Sports+ mode?

Yes, it is possible to estimate the 0-60 mph time using drag strip data, though it won't be exact. Typically, to get an accurate 0-60 mph time, data from a full speedometer or an accelerometer is required, but we can make an educated guess using known intervals like the 330-foot or 1/8-mile times.


Data Provided:

  • 1/4 mile (Quarter mile) time: 12.010 seconds
  • Trap speed: 112.53 mph
  • 330-foot time: 4.957 seconds
  • 1/8 mile time: 7.668 seconds at 90.46 mph


Methodology:

One way to estimate the 0-60 mph time is by looking at the 330-foot time. Most cars reach 60 mph (96.56 km/h) at some point between the 60-foot and 330-foot marks. By comparing this interval with known data, we can estimate the 0-60 mph time.


Estimation:

For a car that completes the 1/4 mile in around 12 seconds, the 0-60 mph time is typically in the 3.5 to 4.2 second range. Given that the car's 330-foot time is 4.957 seconds, it likely reaches 60 mph before this mark. Based on this data and the trap speed, the car's 0-60 mph time can be estimated to be approximately:

0-60 mph time: 3.8 to 4.1 seconds


This is a rough estimate and could vary based on the car’s launch and traction. For a more precise calculation, more data points (like the 60-foot time) would be required.

Sorry to say but I have no idea, and I don't think you could tell on a road course either unless you drove a similar car without it.

Race mode only but used the Race Start. I didn't have time to try other modes.

I'm also wondering if the stated overboost was available during the run. I suspect that it was given the performance but I didn't have a chance to check the Engine Data...going 112mph kept me focused on the track.

Thanks, I had no way to check 0-60 but your estimate sounds about right.
