    0-200 km/h : 13.0 sec

    0-241 km/h : 19.6 sec

    0-249 km/h : 22.0 sec

    0-300 km/h : Probably in the 39-42 sec range.

    0-200: Auto Motor und Sport

    0-241: The article you posted

    0-249: The article you posted

    0-300: My guess given the time difference between 0-241 to 241-249 ( 2.4 sec for 8 km/h )

    The 0-200Kph accelaration times are not that impressive for a 600Hp car, the GT2 can makes 11,9, weight is key. But the AMG engine really makes a difference from 200Kph up, this is where the 600Hp will shine high.

    However fast this car may be, it is no sports car by any means. It goes, but cannot handle the twisties even with the ABC program. It's a nice flashy two door that can get you to a movie premier in style in 20 seconds as apposed to five minutes.
    The engine is absolutely fantastic, but the only car that deserves this engine is the SL. I can only imagine how incredible an SL65 would be!? AMG is starting to become overkill, heck the whole automotive market is!!!
