    8.9 seconds is the factory spec (V6 auto)..... obviously depends on many factors, the ageing/condition of the vehicle, ambient air temperature (faster on cold nights than in summer)... weight on board, the road surface etc, fuel used...

    I timed my brothers and it was around 9 to 10 seconds with 4 people on board. Did the quarter in around 17 seconds.

    your telling me mate, there is no way i can afford a dyno, i am scared that the numbers will dissapoint me anyway.
    i would rather just stick with the thought that my car is fast enough for me haha.

    what sort of mobile phone do you have? if you've got a fairly ok one (i have a nokia n82) download the app "racechrono"

    gps based timer that has different tests you can do.

    my ute with a soft launch and soft gear changes did a 16.1 @ 142km/h. 0-100 was around the 8.7 sec mark because of the 2nd to 3rd change. hits 99.1km/h on the limiter in 2nd haha.

    only mod is cat back exhausst

    that is a sick app, my phone is probably too dead to have something like that.
    i'll get one of my mates with an iphone or something to download it and ride shotgun with me.
    i'm going to base my ute's times on yours then mate haha.

    going on my favourite program, top gear, haha, if the cars been looked after well it wont have lost a lot. theres an episode when they try to modify a renault avantine (v6 people carrier) to be as fast around their track as a evo 10. anywho, they did a dyno test of the car and it had lost something like 40 to 50bhp since it rolled off the showroom floor about 10 years before. james, one of the presenters, gave the renault a really thorough and good service and then they performed another dyno tune and the car only ended up having lost around 10bhp at the wheels compared to when it was new. hope this helps mate

    theres a better app for iphones but it isn't free. its called dynolicious.

    but racechrono is free which is awesome. it has all the split times like 60 foot 1/8 mile etc etc. it also shows how many g's you pull around corners and under acceleration/deceleration.

    ps. those times were with one 95kg driver and full of juice.
