I'm not sure where there are "official" times posted but I've seen some magazines and sites post the 0-60 ranging from 5.2 seconds to 5.6 seconds.

I did use a stopwatch (online, http://tools.arantius.com/stopwatch), and got about 5.203 sec on first trial, and 5.297 for the second trial. I think our G's are pretty damn fast even with an automatic tranny.

Can't stop smiling.

Well I did a few runs with my GTech tonight (only 600 miles on the car so did not want to beat up on it too hard). As might be expected launching is easy, but technique counts. First 2 runs, just release brake and floor the car, average time was 5.72s. I then did a couple of runs powerbraking and launching at about 2500 RPMs and average was 5.39s.

I expect that optimizing launch RPM and a few miles on the odometer and 5.2s is possible.

As a point of reference, my previous car was a Volvo S60R, which I upgraded the ECU on. With the Gtech I clocked my S60R at an average of 5.78 s 0-60 before ECU upgrade and 5.38s after Evolve ECU Upgrade (Manual Transmission). So G is about as fast as the chipped S60R with a manual transmission.

Turn it off and try again after its broken in... The only thing its going to do is pull the throttle back ie, slower times...

Yeah I will run it again after I have a couple of thousand miles on the odo, and I will experiment with launch RPM with DCS off. Interesting to launch this car compared to my S60R MT. You had to be real careful with the S60 so that you don't bog the motor, but the G is easy to launch.
