Magazine reviews and road tests have the automatic version 0 to 60 MPH as low as 4.3 seconds. I think the factory sets it at 4.8 seconds, but that might be 0 to 62 MPH (100 kph), which throws numbers off a bit.
And some reviewers simply quote the factory numbers and leave it at that.
From the way my car feels, I believe the factory numbers a little conservative.
I have no problem with that. Might even help keep insurance premiums down. I seem to remember back to the 1960's muscle car days when car manufacturers purposefully underrated the cars for the express purpose of keeping insurance rates down.
