my boss is faster than my old kleemann k1 c63. was a pretty good car though. I suspect a 13 shelby would win every time.

C63's are such cool cars. You'd never expect that they sound and perform the way they do, very comfortable ride too. The 13 gt500 is the muscle car to have. I'm considering parking one next to my 63 someday

Hahahahahaha...that's cute I have a fan! No need to talk about your poor mans super car when the thread is about to two cars.

As I stated the gt500 is a beast and this was hardly a run but good to hear the exhaust from both. But I didn't realize the gt500 had such a low redline..that would seem boring to me

C63 has a 7300 redline and GT500 a 7000 redline, I dont see how a 300 rpm variance would make the GT500 boring when its making over 400ft lbs more tq to the wheels than the C63 at 3000rpms. :shrug:

"This C63 may only have 451HP/442TQ, but it counters with a swift-shifting 7-spd auto compared to the Mustangs manual......so it should be close".

WTF kind of retarded logic is that?!

Cool vid but a more fun challenge would have been CL65 AMG, SL65 AMG, S65 AMG, SLR McLaren or SLS AMG GT Coupe "gullwing"

I find it amusing they pick the smallest V8 AMG to race a Shelby.
The only fast C63 AMG was the P51 Performance Package with SuperCharger.

I think u are looking into this to deep..it wasn't meant to been an actual race to see who is faster or the better car because these two cars are even close to the same league . I mean sure a new CLS63 would've put up a better fight but still would've lost and still wouldn't of proved anything . Just two different types of vehicles. No need to get butthurt over C63 getting raped ( not directed toward you) as it simpley isn't on the same power level as a GT500. Hell I would love to lose to one if I could find one in my area

Can a 13 GT500 answer this question for me.......so I read that a 500 has a 6200 redline and a 7k over rev limiter. Can you explain how this works? I made a comment about it having such a low rev because I saw a 6k redline in the vid then members post it is 7k....so I research that is what I found. Care to elaborate?

The over rev feature is only active once the car reaches operating temps. So on a cold start like they showed, the redline showed about 6K. But once its warm one of those illuminated red zones shuts off, there by making the full rpm range available. The most useful power is up to 65-6700 rpm. The 7k rpm is really there for those times you are racing and really wanna get the most out of every gear. You can only remain at 7K for about 7-8 seconds and then the computer will kick you down. I myself almost never go to 7k. Thats it in a nutshell.

Ok makes sense. Same as with a M3 or M5... redline is 5k and slowly reaches 8+ k redline when at full warm temp. Thanks :thumbsup:
