or so they claim.. but that's beside the point.


the point is that the numbers that they post on those magazines usually are difficult to approach in most cases.

in that article they also claim low 5 secs for 0-60 for the new G and it weighs about 3600-3700 lbs now, impossible! Now if it had 350hp, maybe, but w/only 306hp and 268 lbs of twist, I don't see it....I think the C6 will be my next car....

the IS has 10 more ft lbs of torque, weighs less, but still clocks in at 5.5 seconds 0-60.

true....which is probably why C&D got it to 60 in 5.1 sec and the G in 5.3
