It's really fast from 0-100!
But from 0-250km/u for example, the BMW M5 (e60) is almost just as fast, not to mention the Mercedes CL65AMG.
The CL was tested in a dutch magazine, here are the times.

0 - 60 2.4s
0 - 80 3.2s
0 - 100 4.3s
0 - 120 5.3s
0 - 140 6.8s
0 - 160 8.4s
0 - 180 10.2s
0 - 200 12.5s
0 - 220 15.2s
0 - 240 18.3s
0 - 250 20.0s !!

CL 65 is a V12 twin turbo with 612 hp and over 100 kg of torque...............

[Clio16V]

That's right and the weight is more than 2100kg!

1000Nm at 2000rpm-4000rpm

[RAMMIUS]

You can`t compare a hig revv engine with a twin turbo !

The performance of the F430 it`s absolutely mind blowing.
