Is this true ? : Zero-to-sixty actually doesn't matter so much ?

edk370

The 370 when it first came out in 09 was clocked at 4.6 secs to 60. Am I correct? because that's pretty darn fast. It was a Car & Driver issue where they used a blue sport model 6-speed. Then, as the years went by, the magazines clocked it in the low 5 sec range. Was it the drivers who sucked, or was the Z regressing, or both?

Firebase99

It was a 7 speed auto with Sport and it was 4.7 and 13.2 in the qtr at 107. No other mag saw those times...ever again. It was being compared to a DB9 IIRC.

UNKNOWN_370

Uuugggghhh No it was 4.6.... And R&T saw 4.8

And any Mag that accelerated with a foot of roll-out got under 5 seconds on the automatic. No other magazine got under 5 on the manual. And on that Mag the manual got 4.8 not 4.7

The auto on prime conditions average 4.8 to 60. The auto barely gets reviewed.
