Well just got my C&D and thought the results were pretty good.

GSR base

0-60 = 4.6

1/4 = 13.4

0.97g on slippery road


This won the comparison test between the new STI and R32 and was faster than the STI in everything except the 0-30.

 

Better than I expected... thanks for the info!

 

this is the second "C&C" post...

as long as we are at it, can someone please ask about the aero package?

 

i also have the Car&Driver + Road&Track + MortorTrend and all 3 magz. got different times the EVOX beats the sti in all 3 magz.. i dont understand why all 3 got different times

Car&Drive- ---- 0-60=4.6
Raod&Track---- 0-60=4.9
MortorTrent---- 0-60=5.2

 

motor trend was a preproduction car and was misfiring bad up top

 

I thought car and driver test car was pre-production also

 

why r u calling it C & C first of all?( C & D) they arent going to lie, if it pulled a 4.6 then thats what it did.

 

It is in pre-production.......right?

 

To answer the post about why times are different, its easy to explain. Besides the fact that these are or are not production cars, when you have 0-60 times that differ from 4.6-5.2 it comes down to a couple of things, namely weather conditions, and driver. Maybe weather conditions were optimal for the C& D test and not so w/ the Motortrend test. I think with the right driver and conditions, the new X is definitely capable of being in the 4-second range for 0-60 times. My .02 cents

 

my take on it is that these idiots can't drive. when the EVO IX came out i saw magazines rating it anywhere from 4.3-5.7 0-60, and 13.3-14.1 in the 1/4 and as we all know, the car can hit mid-high 12's all day long bone stock. we won't know what these cars can actually do until people get them and start running them
