The non-CP M6: 0-60: 4.0s and 1/4m: 12.1 @ 123.1mph
SLS GT: 0-60: 3.7s and 1/4m: 11.7 124.5mph
So it took the M6 8.1s to go from 60mph to 123.1mph. The SLS GT took 8.0s to go from 60-124.5 mph. Yes the SLS GT is faster but the rolling performance is alot closer than many would expect. If the competition package adds some top end power (as advertised) it would definitely close the gap a little bit. Plus if the weather is cool out... the turbo car is going to benefit much more than the N/A V8. So I can see the M6 CP being VERY competitive with the SLS GT and even beating it in certain favorable conditions. |
nah.. my money would be on the sls gt.
even 2010 or 2011 sls i think would take the m6 in any race, rolling or 1/4 mile.
BTW did anyone see the trap speed of the SLS black series? 129 mph!! HOLY SHAT!
