Arrow SS 0-60 = 4.7 sec

In addition to the fuel-sipping EPA numbers of 16 MPG City, 24 MPG Highway, we're told the 0-to-60 time of the new Chevy Camaro SS is a tire-squealing 4.7 seconds.

Same official # as the G8 GXP. Mags were able to get lower with that car so I'd expect the same here.

Motortrend got a 4.5 second 0-60 sprint in the manual G8 GXP.

However over the weekend, I saw Motorweek only get a 5.0 sec 0-60 and a 13.2 @ 112mph for qtr mile on the GXP.

that's because Motorweak drivers aren't as good at launching the car

... Yet all that trash talking about the Challenger being a pig, yet it also does 4.7


But with a really good driver, I give it 4.4 - 4.5

especially if they can pull 4.5 out of a heavier car
