frankly really surprised/a little upset that, after saying repeatedly that 0-60 was under four seconds (youd think theyd be conservative even), the 0-60 is over 4.

My understanding is that Automobile doesn't focus on 0-60 times - they went through a phase were they wouldn't even post them. I'm not too concerned, the thing should be a monster on the track. WANT!

If I'm not mistaken edmunds said the same thing. But. I typically trust motor trend's numbers and they hit 3.9, and said the auto will be a little quicker, so that's good for me. Motor trend's ignition episode on youtube about the C7 (embedded in the article) is pretty exciting i think. Overall I'm very happy with all the opinions coming out.
