Hi all,

I've done a few searches on the forum here but haven't been able to find the answer. What are the 0-60 mph and 1/4 mile times for a stock manual GT?

Thanks,

Richard

 

0-60 5.2 qtr mile 13.9 Ck out Gtimer forum

 

These numbers are widely known,BUT WHAT ARE THE OFFICIAL NUMBERS FOR V-6?(not estimated by owners)

 

I was wondering about the actual 1/4 mile and 0-60 fo rthe V-6 also.

 

There was a post somewhere around here from a guy whose father had taken an 05 six cylinder to the track and ran a couple of 15.2's.

 

My car ran a 13.64 @ 101 bone stock. I dont know the 0 - 60 time.

 

14.02 @ 97.39 3790 pound race weight, automatic, 70 miles on motor, stock, and stock tires, 2.14 60'. Will go 13's next time out. :angry: 11/28/04.

 

Nice times. I'm sure you'll knock another tick or two off next time out too

 

Black Magic-


You had 70 miles on your car. THat's ridiculous. I understand that you don't need to break in new cars as much as old ones, but that's not the best thing to do in my opinion.

 

Scott is just one of those "drive it like ya stole it" guys Andy....

 

"drive it like you broke it"
If you dont want to be teased about "Found On Road Dead" be nice to your engine for a 1000 miles... then "drive it like you stole it"

 

Mines starting to "loosen up" now at 1400 miles. I waited til over 1000 to "run her hard" and before my first tune. Just wanted us to become better acquainted before doing battle with her!

 

Now guys. I thought the manual said don't break it in at the same RPM. I was trying to do the right thing(lol). :bang: Besides, it's under warranty. It now has 1100 miles and ready for round 2. Stay tuned. Merry Christmas.

 

You are correct don't break it in at same RPM. But that doesn't mean drag race at first. It probably doesn't matter anyway and won't to any harm.


Keep us posted.

 

Motortrend got a 05 GT 5-speed manual to do 0-60 in 5.1sec and 1/4 mile in 13.5sec.

We've have a timeslip from a guy who did 13.35sec in the quarter.

Thanks Dan,

I looked through that magazine last night and missed the performance data page on page 63. I updated my original post with the MotorTrend info.
