I was just wondering on my stock 96'se with 85,000 miles on it and running perfect, what do you think a 0-60 time would be. its a 5spd and im farely good at driving stick ??

 

Probably mid to high 6 second range.

 

You know, I was wondering the same question. I would assume that power or performance would decrease as the car got older. However with my 84K, everything is running well and I am getting 25 mpg combined city and driving. I don't drive like a granny, but I'm not speed racer either. I just like to feel the power every now and then and even to redline. Any one out there have "official" times of relatively stock 95 or 96 SE's with a stick?

 

My baby is also running awsome and im getting about 22 with about 90% city and 10% highway with 87,000 miles on her ...it really is running great and i do bring it to redline alot during those 22 mpg...any idea of times post em up

 

How good a driver are you? If you shift well and your clutch is in a good operating condition, then mid to higher 6s are possible. However, if you are like most of us and are just okay at driving a 5speed, then I would aim for about 7.0 to 7.4 seconds. Try it on the highway WITH NO ONE ELSE AROUND a few times and find out. God I love how fast these little things are...

 

I know the autos are 1 second slower than the manuals but I say the same think sometimes when pulling from 30 to 60. This thing is explosive.
