So over on S2KI.com somebody's talking about a grudge race going to be held between the two. There's a debate over which car is most likely to win.

imo its not even close with the win going to the torque monster Benz. I've never seen an M6 hit 60 in less than 4 or the quarter in less than 12, while the Benz can. Thoughts, comments?

2007 Mercedes SL600
hp:510
Torque: 612 lb/ft
weight: 4320lbs

VS.

2007 BMW M6
hp:500
torque:383lb/ft
weight: 3770

[Edited on October 16, 2007 at 1:41 PM. Reason : And I think the listed weight for the M6 is too low]

I think the curb weight is pretty close.

That said, this is a silly comparison. In 0-60 and 1/4 this is going to be rape- SL600 on top big.

^I just go there for amusement purposes. I don't own an S2k so I don't see whats the difference.

I wasn't saying the Benz's weight was wrong, moreso the M6.

Apparently the race went down and the Benz raped the M6. However the driver fessed up and admitted it had a Renntech stage 1 kit, and put out 640hp. LOL.

So apparently there are stock W211 E55s running the 1/4 in 12.16 @ 113mph on STOCK rubber.

Yikes!
