I recently came across an enthusiast's article about the 1970 Mercedes
300SEL 6.3.
The numbers in the article sounded really familiar. They were very close
to the numbers of my 2006 E320 CDI. So I looked specs of both cars and
made this table:
Year ~1970
i drove a 6.3 for a few years. it's not that amazing by modern standards
but just shows how much cars sucked 40 years ago. i also drove a euro
600SEL, the equivalent car of roughly 20 years ago and it made the 6.3 into
a joke
i imagine today's super performance cars are unreal and slightly
Very cool table, thanks for sharing it with us!
Road Track (IIRC) did a comparison between a Porsche 356 and a new (at
the time) Karmen Ghia and found them to be almost identical. I don't
remember the year, but it was probably in the early '70's.
