Default 0-60 With auto trans on a 2010 mustang gt

I was just wondering 0-60 times with an auto trans. I have been getting 5.8 and 5.5 with traction control off. Just wanted to know if that was to be expected. Car is still stock, only have had it for two weeks.

How do you know when you reach 60 mph? The factory speedo isn't known to be particularly accurate.

Yeah mine says I'm going 80 and my bud in his GTO flys by me with his cruise set at 80. Crazy

That’s more like the correct 0 – 60 time. The O7 Ford brochure shows tested 0 to 60 at 4.9 seconds. Expect the auto would be a bit slower though.

One thing I noticed is that not all GTs are created equal. My 09 feels a lot faster than my 07 did.
