Can someone please inform the correct 0 - 60mph time for an slk32 amg? Evo mag had it at 5.2 but i still keep seeing sub 5 sec times. Bhp seems to differ too sometimes 349 bhp and then others have 354 bhp.

The possible differences in the power may be down to the differences in metric & imperial horse power (PS and BHP, respectively). But 354 is the correct figure quoted.

The car was officially quoted at 5.2 seconds for the 0-62.5 mph (0-100km/h) sprint by Mercedes.
0-60 of 4.8 should be about right, due to the speed difference. Also Mercedes were conservative with their quotes.

For example, the C32 AMG was clocked at 4.6 seconds for the 0-60mph sprint, whereas Mercedes quoted a time of 5.2 seconds for 0-100km/h.
