I'm thinkin'.....aol is not a valid source for performance specifications......

Let Motor Trend or Edmunds compare data to their 2010 times and see if it's slower...

AOL is still around?

Yea, it adds a little to the 0-60 time if you have to watch it over 56k...

Probably tested a car that the dealer filled up with 87 octane. That will result in a 5.2 0-60. That and a crap driver.

I didn't know AOL was a legitimate source for car tests.

SUX2BU · 10-31-2011, 11:41 PM

Did some calculations and stock my car did a 5.5 0-60. With bolt ons it does a 4.1 0-60. LOL

A fuse pull is in order at AOL. LMAO

honestly if you search for 0-60 times on the internet for 3 different cars, you will probably find 5 different times listed for each, at least. a car's 0-60 and weight have to be the most grossly screwed up stats found on the interweb.

I used AOL, but only for one thing...Neverwinter Nights. It was the precursor to all the MMORPG's. Based off the Gold Box TSR D&D games, it allowed you to play in a single world (no shards) which could have "gasp" hundreds of other people playing at the same time. EGA graphics, and 2D turn based combat.

It was awesome for the time, but the only downside was having to have AOL to play it.

Some guy posted a spreadsheet he made where you can find your 0-60 with time slip info. I didn't check all his math but it looks decent.
