About the GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557

The 2017 Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557 is a rear-drive turbocharged coupe of 1,700 kg with 550 bhp, which works out at 323 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 323 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.72 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 449th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 7th quickest of the 63 Mercedes-AMGs here. Its 118.4 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557 reaches 60 mph in 3.27 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 449th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557 quarter mile time?
11.65 s at 118.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.45 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.72 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557 have?
550 bhp and 1,700 kg, which is 323 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 317 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557?
Closest here on pace: Jaguar F-Type Coupe 5.0 V8 575 (3.27 s), Aston Martin DB11 AMR 5.2 V12 630 (3.28 s), Aston Martin Vantage F1 Edition (3.31 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Mercedes-AMG GT C Coupe 4.0 V8 557 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
