13.8 according to this test:

The 3482-pound 3.8 R-Spec two-door we tested needed 5.2 seconds to hit 60 mph, 0.3 fewer than before. The quarter-mile went by in 13.8 at 104 mph

So a half second slower.

Yea, the mags say that but I personally saw faster. Neither here nor there. Its not as quick a 370 in any flavor not debating that. I just dont see the Z as "slow". Its a canyon carver with some power backing it up. Unlike BRZ/FRS.
