[Just_me]

SportAuto just tested a stock SL65 and here are some numbers

0-100km/h 4.3 s
0-160km/h 8,8 s
0-200km/h 13,1 s

Elasticity 4/5 gear
80-100km/h 2,7 / 5,2 s
80-120km/h 4,7 / 8,0 s
80-140km/h 6,7 / 10,5 s
80-160km/h 8,8 / 13,1 s
80-180km/h 10,9 / 16,1 s

Slalom 63,2km/h
36 meter slalom 120km/h
Filechange 110 meter 127km/h

0-200-0km/h 18,5 s
G-power 1,1 g

Nordschleife 8.14 min
Hockenheim 1.15,6 min

A stock SL55 do a laptime around Nordschleife in 8.12 min (without a speedlimit and chassi modification a SL55 doing it in 8.06 min). Reason for SL65 being slower than SL55 around Nordschleife is cause of the 12-cylinder engine. One intresting thing is that SL65 reached a topspeed of 279km/h at Nordschleife. It seems like the germans are forgetting about the 250km/h limit.

Total score (they also presented the score for some other cars) :

Carrera GT 68 p
BMW M5 50 p
Aston Martin DB9 48 p
SL55 AMG 46 p
SL65 43 p

Reason for more points for SL55 is cause the car is a acting more like a sportcar and for having better handling than SL65.

When will they test CLK-DTM?
