cady no...
I understand the point that you are making BUT the site doesn't want to guess the difference between 60mph and 100kph if there is a test from a source that gives 0-100kph. Some cars require a shift between 60mph and 62mph (which would add time) while some cars can stay in gear from 60mph to 62mph.
This site doesn't list 0-60mph. it lists 0-100 kph (roughly 62.14 mph)
...not true

damn flamethrowers...
Do your homework. The engine in this car is actually very light weight. The V8 LS9 engine weighs less than the V6 engine used in the GTR.
Secondly, if they did everything you request they would end up with a non-luxury sedan that would cost far too much. The whole point of this car is for it to be fast luxury at a reasonable price.. which it does flawlessly.
BTW: i am prepared for the torrent of american flamethrowers now pointed at my forehead.
It probably is quicker to 300kph but since 0-300kph is rarely tested, the one that is given is the only one listed in the stats.
Eventually, another magazine will do a test and the time will probably improve.
