Those are pretty sick #'s for a stock Z....

Cars and in some cases trucks today are pretty quick. 300HP used to be impressive but not in today's world. Automatics are also much more efficient and all that coupled with idiotic drivers infuriates me. I see minivans, suvs and sedans accelerate hard from light to light and cutting people off while talking on their phones. but I'll bet that push comes to shove 99% of those drivers don't know a damn about emergency car control. *end rant* :D

When R&T put it against the Cayman, they got 4.8. My Z is fastest in March April May.... October and November,in Texas weather.

The automatic Z is geared beautifully. Not many people on this forum are believers of the automatic Z. But those of us who have mastered those paddles while pushing the Z know... You can push the auto to move very quickly. Especially with light suspension and breather mods.

Yea they're gonna be quicker than rowing your own. My Genesus same way vs manuals. I'm still a stick guy at heart. No matter how much faster an auto might be it'll never be as much fun, at least to me, as a manual. But I can't enjoy a stick here. This traffic. This is my first car in auto, my Genesis forum name says it.."GettingOld". Lol. High 30's and Florida traffic stick just blows. Lol.

Without reading everything on here...
0-60 times are, to me, a simple way of let me know what to expect if I need to merge, they are not 100% deciding factor in buying a car.
The other thing I don't think anyone mentioned, is drive by wire cars all have a lag, thus products like a sprint booster, So sure if says 5 sec. 0-60, stock, but what will it do with no throttle lag?

I suppose if I had the coin if be in a plush, cushy supercharged jag with 550hp and massaging seats. Lol.

do they measure from the throttle input of the foot? cause i think they just measure from when the car starts moving or the G force these days?

maybe the rolling start might be affected..but

Kind of interesting numbers and engineering. Short of specific drag custom setups with wheelie bars etc look at hp/TQ #'s. Let's say 5 seconds to 60 in the z with 332, Genesis 348, mustang 430, etc. now take a Bugatti, 918, p1,etc. 1000hp range and awd with launch control to cut that five to 2.5. It's insanely exponential!! Though GTR and 911 turbo do it mid 500's...weight. The killer.

I got 4.9. Seem right?

That's about right & close to 12@100

I will be back @ the strip soon w/a few mods...hoping for under 12.50@around 112-115

Not too shabby. Won't have too many jockeying for position at next light I imagine. And that to me, I see an opening in this circus of zombies, man I got that chit, I don't care who's next to me, cuz 9/10 they don't even know what they can do. I LOVE 0 to 60. Everyone knows, everyday, they see 200 yards ahead, some car makes a move to "first place" then to dog at green and have yet another bottleneck cuz they don't understand flow. When I'm in front, on my roads...geezuz, 90% of the time,99, just a huge cluster behind me. 2 cars, 2 lanes...doing 3 mph under. Move!!! So yea 0 to 60 in the limited right environment-huge. Cuz even when a Caravan "nails" it off the line we are static at 40. Go!!! You assshat!!

Nice man I hit 4 flat in my 2014 as well. Could never break into the 3's though lol. What mods do you have?

this would be me :tup:

my car has never seen past 75 mph and i drive like a grandpa, and sometimes will have fun, but generally, am really conservative, and DAMNIT im proud of it lol :icon17:
