What would be the order in which they passed across the line?

Let's say all 'modern' AMGs are lined up (i.e., since the x55 Kompressor cars in '03ish).

Sorry just re-read this post. Stupid, the 0 to 60 times are on the net somewhere...

I think it would depend on which model of AMG (C class, E class, S class, SL, etc) as the AMG engines differ in power between variants, and also there's a weight difference too.

For example, the E55 AMG was the fastest out of the 55k engined cars as it was lighter, despite the SL being the flagship car for that engine.

I think there would be a mish mash of various combinations of engine/model, and that's not even accounting for the power pack/performance pack cars which increase power!

A lot more to a standing 1/4 than 0-60 times.
This one would make a good fist of it though.............
