Long read, but an interesting one. Too long to cut and paste.

That car has balls. 604hp, 738lb-ft, Twin turbo 6.0L v12. I think his best E.t. was 11.85 with the AC on, and he had a best trap speed of 120mph on another run. Overall he said it was capable of 11.5's with a better driver and conditions. That's bone stock, out of the box. Pretty impressive even though it costs like 180g's. You probably won't find anything faster with the level of luxury this baby delivers.

:wow Good find.

I think the only MB vehicle sold in the US with more torque is Unimog U500, it has 280 hp and 811 lb-ft.

It's in the original post. The SL600 is actually 493hp, but dynos closer to 460-470hp at the WHEELS.

If you have 604 hp, 12 cyl, and 2 turbos, no revving is needed to impress people.
