Yeah, but it's dissapointing 0-60 in 5.0 for the convertable! BTW, I'm not sure, but is Supercharged considered stock, or not? I'm not sure but is a car stock when it comes like that from factory(super or turbo charged or N/A) or only when it's N/A?

What I never learned is how do they test how fast it goes 0-60. Do they test it with someone of average weight? Cuz I'm sure if the motor for the convertible makes a .1 second difference, a lighter driver could make some difference too.

The difference between the convertable and the hard-top is the amount of support that the vert needs in the event of a roll-over. The verts usually weigh around 300-400 lbs more than the hard-tops! That and the motors for the vert!
BTW- I just had to reload this page to get the message to post! It's getting very annoying!
