Long Term Test G90 = Stinger GT Performance Indicator?

[Bamm1]

Weighing in at a "big boned" 4717lbs., the G90 HTRAC is probably "worst case" for the application of the 3.3T engine.

They are currently seeing 23 mpg combined (3 over the EPA estimate) and in the ballpark of other turbo V6's used in lighter competitors.

0-60 came in at 5.2 seconds, 0-100 in 13 flat and the 1/4 mile, 13.8 @ 103 mph. Even the 5-60 time only tacks on 0.5 sec over the 0-60 time.

The highest reported weight for the Stinger GT AWD still gives it a 627lb. weight advantage over this G90.

I am looking forward to some G80 Sport tests for further vetting of the 3.3T as we wait for the Stinger.

my g80 sport feels like a flat 5 second car. i times it on not the best surface and in 100 degrees weather and got 5.4 on my iphone continually. in the right conditions its a 5 second car easy. and mine should be a 4.5 pretty soon once i install the new tune on it.

I'm pretty confident we're going to see some 0-60 Stinger runs at 4.6 seconds once people get ahold of the car and start practicing...

I'm not sure about practice since it will have auto launch control. I think it has more to do with the tires and the elevation (since its twin turbocharged)

Update with a more accurate app. No tune yet and 90 degree weather with full tank.

Does that app use a device or the cell phone GPS?

Cellphone gps. Also available with a separate device.

If it's cellphone gps then there is probably a considerable margin of error
