Acceleration Time for 5AT TL (All Stock)?

Hey guys,
I got an all stock 04 with the 5AT w/o Navi and I was wondering the acceleration time (0-60) for this car. Most of the numbers I've seen are pretty impressive, but these are all for the 6-speeders from what I gather. I don't really have time nowadays to do a good test with ideal test conditions and I'm really curious about the time. If anyone can help me with this... could u also tell me the 1/4 mile time... Thanks alot in advance.

Google would give you a better mix of answers, but somewhere in the low 6's is what i have seen.

6.9 seconds according to Road & Track... a VERY realistic number...

6.9 seems kinda high, maybe with the el42's on the car. but with some decent rubber i think low 6's are about right.

I measured mine with a GTimer at 780 miles. The results for 0-60 and 1/4 mile were very close to the Motor Trend numbers posted above.

#1: 1/4 mile: 14.75 @ 95.5, 0-60: 6.27
#2: 1/4 mile: 14.75 @ 96.3, 0-60: 6.30 (opposite direction)
#3: 0-60: 6.15

The G-tech's mph is gonna be a little high, but I have found as long as the road is level that the et's & 0-60 calculations are fairly accurate. Next time I go to the drag strip I'm gonna try to get a real pass along with the g-tech to see hw close it really is.

My CL-S6 runs 0-60 in about 6.0, so figure somewhere in the 6.2-6.5 range, depending on your launch. The 6 speed really doesnt show its advantage until the 2nd half of the 1/4 mile pass, when it gets into 3rd and can generate some speed in vtec without running out of gear quickly.
