i have a bone stock CVT. 0-60 in "D" seems like forever and a day. Sport mode is pretty quick. i havent timed it yet. i dont like the track around here so i dont put my car on it.

0-60 km/h? or miles? i see you're in canada so km/h? might wanna clarify as alot of people here are from the states too.

as for my 08 gts (MT)... i havn't officially timed it.. but i'd estimate 0-60 km/h in ~4 seconds? and 0-100 km/h in a long *** time.... lol probably closer to 11-12? havn't pushed it hard all the way to 100 yet.. had snow and now that its gone.. i still have my witners on since im painting my stock wheels...

It gets to 60km/h decently... i go 1st gear to about 5500 or 6000 rpm then shift and a little bit later through 2nd i'm at 60?

These numbers could be totally off seeing as how when i do this.. i'm pretty pumped and it probably feels faster than it actually is... just like when you jump off something and you're int he air for about half a second.. you tell everyone it was like for 3seconds. haha

i meant 0-60mph (100km) . wow 11-12 seems kinda slow but i think thats because of the winter tires. i got 8 to 8.2 but if i keep trying i think i can get it 7.7 - 7.8

really? 7.7seconds.. 0-100km/h? that's not too bad actually... lol i gotta actually do this up sometime haha

the 11-12seconds was an estimate because it just feels like it would take that long.. but meh.. we'll see in a week or 2 when i get my stock wheels back on

60mph is actually 97kmh to be exact lol.

but most of the reviews on the car were stating about 8seconds for the MT and thats about what most people are getting. Obviousley you can do better if you get perfect conditions.

60mph is 96.56064 km/h to be more exact. lol

i remember seeing it somewhere showing 9.x for the best 0-60mph time... that was CVT though i tihnk... and i figured that was the best possible time.. so given im not a professional race car driver.. i'd be slower... and the factor of my winter tires and not pushing 100%... i estimated 11-12 =)

I got 11.002s on an 1/8 mile last week at the track. And I have a GTS MT (Stock). Top speed was 64.34 mph I was only hitting 5k rpm before shifting.

i would say around 7.7 is very accurate for the ES. it's hard tho with the CVT, it really varies run from run because as i push the car harder it feels like it doesn't pull as well. sometimes i hit the gas and it really pulls but you don't move very fast. all bark and no bite. it's good enough for me and its fun to drive.

1/4 mile i got 17.005 at 83 mph....ES model, manual.....only mod is RRM intake.



although track conditions were less than ideal, 100 degrees, and a strong head wind pushing against the cars going down the track, could've broken 16's on better conditions
