Does anybody know what the quarter-mile and 0-60 times are for the turbo?

Those times seem to reflect my real world experience. I am somewhat disappointed with the top speed, my early research indicated that the S80 T6
was capable of 155+ mph on the top end. And while I have not had the opportunity to keep the throttle buried for more than a mile or so, the fastest I got it to was 130 mph. In the same distance my 3rd gen RX7 will hit over 145 mph.
The real strength of the T6 seems to be in the 60 - 100 mph range, it is damned quick for a car of that size, pulls nice and hard.
I wonder if the times listed were using the manual mode of the Geartronic tranny? Once again, my experience shows the car to be much quicker FEELING when using the manual mode, as the logic of the transmission in full auto mode is skewed towards shifting earlier than what feels right.

0-60 is 6.6 Seconds
1/4 Mile best is 15 seconds at 93.4 MPH

This is for a new stock S80 with no modifications, premium fuel and the traction/skid control turned off.

IPD's Scott Hart has referenced the stock 99's capable of 6.6 - 6.8 0-60 and Quarter mile times of 15.00's at 95-96 MPH, per the Magazines....... Never fast enough!

With the IPD ECU and Exhaust Scott stated 5.8 0-60 times.....
