you see the 0 to 60 is calculated by people we don't know but the 60' is done by our members of all forums at the drag strip and car magazines when they test most cars.to get the 0 to 60 on my car i would have to read it somewhere or go on a long street and with a stop watch time it. this is why i said 60' may be better,, jim
