What would you say is a restpectable* 0-60 mph time?
I think that anything over 10 seconds feels slow.
Under 8 seconds is pretty good
and under 5 seconds is just obscene!:amazed:
So IMHO I would say for a car to feel nippy and lively you need it to do the 0-60 run in 7-8 seconds.
(If 20-50 figures were published I'd use these as a benchmark but as they are not we are stuck with the silly 0-60 times for comparison.)
*I'll define respectable as the sort of car you would buy for as your daily run around.
