It depends on the condition of the starter, the stiffness of the engine and the
temperature of both the starter and the engine, also the viscosity of the oil
(which gets stiffer as it gets colder).
100 amps is a good ballpark figure.
My 2 2001 models have the battery at the rear of the car and seem to start OK
without unduly large battery cables.
