What is your prediction about new e55 times?0-60?1/4mile?

My guess is 12.5 1/4 and 4.5 4.7 up to 100....an article in motor trend took the SL55 out, it ran a 12.5 @ 116! the Ferrari 360 Spider didn't have a chance against the SL55.... pretty amazing considering how much it weighs.....
the E55 and S55 with the V8 Kompressor engine should really be some screamers..

SL55 data ought to be quite similar to E55 numbers since SL weighs more and has nominally more hp. Appears that MB wants to be sure SL55 is slightly quicker.
MB has said the 211E55 will go 0-60 in under 5 seconds but I still haven't seen any specific test #'s.
The #'s will be available soon, though, since Euro delivery E55's should begin rolling out several weeks from now.
