0-60 times C320-C240-C230 sedans

Does anyone have updated 0-60 times for the three C class sedans, or any personal feedback on driving one compared to another with respects to pulling power

The C320 and C320 4-matic sedans are around 6.8 seconds, by MB's conservative estimates. The new C230K sedans are around 7.6 seconds. As far as power, the C320 obviously has the most torque and horsepower and hence pulls the strongest. The C240 is more of a relaxed cruiser, but has plenty of oomph when the tach swings above 2000 rpms. The C230K is somewhere in between, albeit not as smooth as the V6. [:)]

Wait a second. How much gain in HP and torque you got at the dyno?
What goodies you install to a less than 200hp vehicle to go that fast. I want all the info. I am hooked. Tell me more. And how much you spent already.

I find that acceleration is the greatest towards the top half of the rpm range.. thus I'd rather be on the highway than in the city in this car.
