Official 2013 mustang 0-60?

Anyone know the official 0-60 times for all 2013 models?

Thanks!

It depends on the publication. It seems that the following holds true:

GT: 5 sec give or take 5/10ths
V6: 6 sec give or take 5/10ths

I don't think you will find a definitive time as there are just too many variables like gearing, track conditions, driving technique, etc.

I haven't seen any major magazine articles testing the 13 GT yet, and I subscribe to pretty much all of them. Motor Trend tested a 13 V6 performance pack and got 5.3 to 60. That's pretty consistent with 11 and 12 tests I've seen. I'd bet the GT tests would be similar. Most magazines seem to test 3.73 Brembo cars, and the GT usually is under 4.6 seconds. Motor Trend got 4.3 seconds on an 11, but they must have had perfect conditions or some magic pixie dust or something. LOL I've never seen anyone else do that well.

Agreed. On Youtube best time I was able to find was 4.5 on the GT. Haven't seen any V6 runs, but I heard the same 5.3.

I assume that you're just making a blind guess there, because the 2011-2012 V6 Mustangs could do 0-60 in 5.1 seconds. Even some random Yahoo can hit 5.3 second 0-60 in one.

I can't imagine that the 2013s are a full second slower than the 2012s.

Gt's are right around 4.5 while the sixxers are bout 5.2-5.5. These are pretty consistent but there have been a few anomalies, motor trend and their 4.3 gt being one of them. And theres a rumor that a sixxer hit 5 flat. Although i dont think the last one is very true

I agree...4.5 is a fairly commonly achieved figure for both versions of the 5.0 cars. The Ignition youtube channel got a 12.7 quarter mile out of the '13 which is the ame as what Motor Trend got out of the '11 over and over again.

As a '13 Premium GT track pack owner, I was excited to read this article:

Thanks for the link. If you watch it and read between the lines, he says the shifter is crap and makes it very hard to get good times. More than once he mentions you have to wait for it to shift. I am hoping that if mine acts that way I can replace the shifter with something better.
