the video was kinda stupid, but DAMN that TL-S is fast - had no idea Type S's were that quick - or did he have some mods?

The acceleration part didn't seem sped up to anyone else?

I couldn't belive how quick the Tl-S was after watching that video this afternoon, so I went back and watched it right now - sorta "getto" timed it from 0- 60 with a stopwatch i.e. when he floored it, i started the timer, and stopped it when he swept past 60mph. I got a "time" of just under 4.8 seconds - even accounting for error, its impossible that that portion of the video was authentic. Can someone with a TL-S veryify this.

Unless the guy had mods.....then anything's possible.

he posted this a WHILE back. he admitted that he SPED UP THE VIDEO. after that he never posted here again.

he had no mods. its just a stock type-S with a small knowledge of video editting.

oh thank god. I was worried that my car was really that much slower than the type S's.

kinda sounded like an F1 car

that's a sweet song in the background btw. anyone know what it is? I think it's in the movie snatch too.

^^ The RPM's dropping that fast after a shift is a dead give away.
