Different years = different performance

Also the number of options the car has will affect weight, and thus the performance.

Why would anybody test their 0-60 time with two people in their car?

I'd say it between 7.3 and 7.8. Best time I've done in 1/4 mile is 16.4 @ 88 and that was with 3/4 tank, temperature was 27C, and I had the stock wheels on.
