So as far as actual times, at a quick glance I saw:

Motortrend: 0-60=4.7, 1/4=13.3
Edmunds: 0-60=5.1, 1/4=13.4
C&D: 0-6=4.9, 1/4=13.5
Road & Track: 0-60=5.1, 1/4=13.7


Not sure what happened with R&T

"According to Nissan, this technology — seen for the first time in a production car — took five years to develop. And let me tell you, it works. A 7-speed automatic will also be available. The 370Z sprints to 60 mph in a scant 5.1 seconds, which bests the old car's mark by almost a half second, and to the quarter mile in 13.7. We performed our tests at an elevation of 1500 ft., so don't be surprised if the car runs a 5.0 or better when we get our hands on one here near sea level."
