to the mercedes buyers guide from 1994 the 560 sel is 7.4 to 60 and the 6.9 is 8 sec. both have top speed of 140.

these are presumed to be us versions.

i suspect the euro version of the 6.9 would be considerably quicker. and the euro version of the 560 i would suspect is also quicker than the us version but perhaps less so than the 6.9. so it wouldnt surprise me if the euro 6.9 is quicker than the euro 560.

just my thoughts
