EDIT: Also found a test on the 2015 Challenger:

2015 Challenger V6
0-60: 6.2 s
0-100: 15.5 s
1/4 mile: 14.7 @ 97 mph

That's also a slow time for a 2015 v6 Challenger, 0-60 in 6.0s and 1/4 mile in 14.5s seems to be around the average, mine has done 0-60 is 6.0s on the one time I did a 0-60 run, and that was a bad launch with lots of wheel spin, I've seen people getting down into the mid 5's. The 6M BRZ is definitely closer to the acceleration of the v6 Challenger than the 6A too, a lot due to the poor gearing in the 6A which is what I had, that made the BRZ especially sluggish off the line and was well into the 7's 0-60 which actually made the pulling out onto RT 1 in my area scary, which for those that aren't familiar with the road it's a 50mph highway with people often traveling 55-60 with businesses directly off it like you would see on a normal city road, as in parking lot attached directly to the highway with no sort of merging ramps/lanes, simply pull out into highway traffic, on a very busy highway.


It would have been nice if I had lived in an area where the BRZ showed it's benefits more, like visiting my fiancé's family out in the Berkshires was awesome because that car was certainly fun on those windy mountain roads.

It means not driving it like a 91 year old woman...

Want a coffin on wheels? Look at Buick.
