What is the real performance data on TL-P?

Does any one know what is the real performance spec. on TL-P like 0-60 & 1/4 miles.

The reason why I am asking this question is that there is just too many variance in the amongst difference data.

For Example:

Road & Track : 0-60 7.2 sec 1/4 mi 15.5 sec

Motor Trend : 0-60 6.7 sec 1/4 mi 15.2 sec

Car & Driver : 0-60 7.4 sec 1/4 mi 15.9 sec

Edmunds.com : 0-60 7.6 sec 1/4 mi 15.9 sec

MSNcarpoint : 0-60 8.6 sec 1/4 mi 16.5 sec

Thecarplace.com: 0-60 7.2 sec 1/4 mi 15.7 sec

Almost 2 second variance on 0-60.

Do you think TL-P(5spd auto) can take on IS300 (5spd auto)
on 0-60 & 1/4 mi?

Who do you think will win?

Did anyone ever racing a IS300 on TL-P?

Just to make one thing VERY CLEAR. I am NOT BASHING on IS300 SO PLEASE DON'T GO THERE.

I am just curious because the performance data's are very close.

You might check out the transmisisons used in the performance data. I know that the original Motor Trend specs. were with the 4 speed auto, not the 5.

Very simple math...

Take the highest and lowest out and average the other 4.

That will give you an acurate estimate of:

0-60 in 7.35 seconds

1/4 mile in 15.75 seconds

Thank you for understanding my super intellectual algorithm
