0-60 seems a little slow. Isn't it supposed to be around 3.3-3.4? 3.7 is about the same as a Z06 does. But check out the 60-0 distance: 94.98 ft! Seems to have 'decent' midrange acceleration too: 2.15s for 40-70.

Is anybody else amazed by the 20 mpg on the highway? haha

And DGthe3, about the 0-60 times, maybe it's not hooking up? I'm sure it has amazing tires but 600+ hp and torque are pretty brutal
