Default 3.7 auto 0-60

My 2011 came in Friday, it is a V6 automatic with a 3.31. After some long rides, I used the Dynolicious app on my iPod Touch to see what it would do 0-60 in. Did a few runs, got a 5.70. There is room for improvement. But a good start I think.

Ditto. Great looking ride and congrats!, but I wouldn't bet the farm on that being an accurate measurement method.

Of course I wouldn't say this is magazine accurate, but since no magazines I know of have tested the 3.7 auto yet, I figured I'd give you guys my results. The times should at least be somewhat close.

As for accuracy, I used the Dynolicious when I took my 05 V6 to Kil-Kare Dragstrip last month so I could match it up with an actual timeslip. Not perfect, but ballpark:

Thanks for the compliments on the new ride, it is still a shock to see the Grabber Blue sitting out there instead of the Screaming Yellow. I plan to take the new ride to Kil-Kare Dragstrip this Thursday if everything goes according to plan. If I do, I'll post the results and timeslip.

Dynolicious was very accurate for me until I got 4.10's. The new V6 is quick! 0-60 in 5.7 seconds on the street is verrrrrrrry impressive.

5.7 sounds right, I think thats what the manufacture claims too.
