Sorry to jump on the bandwagon here but I think that some additional math errors that need correction.

* places tounge firmly against cheek and grabs a calculator *

Numbers reported on www.premiercobras.com/specs.htm under Perfomance:

0 – 60 MPH 4.4 Seconds
0 – 100 MPH 9.8 Seconds
Standing ¼ mile 11.9 Seconds at 116 mph
60 MPH panic stop 3.9 Seconds in 186 feet
0 – 100 – 0 MPH 13.1 Seconds
Skid pad .96 G
Nominal economy 10 mpg city and 14 mpg highway


So
0 - 100 = 9.8 seconds
+
60 - 0 = 3.9 seconds

That adds up to 13.7 seconds to go from 0 - 100 and from 60 - 0.

BUT

0 - 100 - 0 = 13.1 seconds



But in the famous words of Flyin Freddie.........

But....I don't know....I could be wrong....
