This really belongs in the 3rd gen forum, but...

Times are pretty varied. Optimistic enthusaiasts like to quote sub 5 sec times for 0-60...forget it...not stock. The big car mags got to 60 mph in the mid 5's...consistantly.

1/4 mile times ranged from 13.5 to 14.0 ...expect closer
to 14 secs.

5-60mph times were around 6.0 secs.

If you are looking to compare your car to a healthy then do 3rd gear 40-70 mph run. The method is described in a post in the 3rd gen forum. Follow the directions or your numbers will be meaningless. Its very useful to diagnose the health of the car.

I'll find it and post it later.
