That time was as tested by Mercedes so probably best case scenario, much like the t's 12.6, most will do a 13.

Also this is apples and oranges gear, sure a barra would be a sh*t load faster for a 160k, but it will never sound as good and it will never be a prestigious euro.

Bang for buck though, Aussie "performance" cars are probably the best in the world.

Ah... well........ 280 rwkw at the tyres in a manual BF with two in the cab and all out gear changes versus the C63 with one in the cab - with both on a rolling start - sees the ford just get over the line first.

The C63 is a great piece of kit however and if I had the bucks and could insure it I'd go with the Merc. BTW - Had the windows down doing the business - that V8 really sounds good.

A mate had a 2011 C63 (336kw), best it ran was 12.4 with a 1.8 60ft.

From a standing start on the street they get the power down really well. As far as handling goes it makes an fg xr6 t feel very average lol.

wait 10 years and the c63 will be worth less than a new festiva.

For performance if I had to spent 160k you can't go past the GTR 35. 11.2 secs 0-400 stock,not too shabby!
