acceleration

I was just curious if anybody out there had personally tested the 0-60 time on their SLK? Just thought it would be interesting to compare the MB performance data to other peoples numbers to get an idea of the difference. I know sometimes a cars performance get a little better after 20k miles or so.

I am not sure how accurate the G-tech is, but I get consistant 6.3 to 6.5 sec ...almost never above and almost never below, so I guess thats pretty accurate...

SLK 320, chip upgrade. nothing else.

Well I don't have any times because my car isn't here yet but I was just trying to get an idea. The times posted or the SLK320 seem accurate though. I was expecting a little more out of the SLK230 but conditions vary and as you said the tires may have been an issue. Anybody else have any numbers? 1/4 mile would be great too.
