There's been a few 0-60 runs posted recently, so here is my contribution. This is from my 500E after it had been fitted with 100cell racing cats and stainless exhaust.

Yup, kph. But she does go well for an old girl. More info about the exhaust project over on the 500ecstasy forum:-

I think your speedo is a bit out! 0 - 100 mph is coming up at 12s

The most incredible bit about it is the 180 to 0 speed. It's instantaneous and he still has time to flick his right indicator on (if your media player settings are set to play repeat) Your brakes are great.

According to my GPS it's out by 5mph at 161-ish kph, so not too far off.

Amended it's roughly 13.5s - that's still very fast (about a 14s quarter mile) Sounds great too

When playing video, press fast foreward sounds even better

Wooooooooooooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!! U lucky people!!! Yes I'v played with twice-as-fast audio many times before .

Btw Winamp was not set to repeat so as far as I was concerned the universe and all time basically stop when it reaches the end...

Lovely smooth sound.

Hi S-Express,

who are you using to stream the video?

 

[S-Express]

Nothing fancy, the file was simply put in some Blueyonder web space. There is no streaming at the server end, although your client (Quicktime ? ) may be playing as it downloads.
