Hi there,
in the latest Road&Track magazin there`s a test of the XLR V.

Does anybody know the test-numbers? I`ll get this issue around the 20. this month here in Germany that`s why I ask.

I do love "Road and Track": http://www.roadandtrack.com/

In the current online issue I did not see the article you mentioned. When the print version issues, it will be here.

Kent, thanks a lot but I have this one, it was in April issue.(was the STS V)
I saw online on cover of the June issue they test the XLR V, so it`s in this one.

But thanks again

Hi Hans and other forum members

This is my first post as a new member, but have been following this forum for over a year. Didn't join before because had nothing to contribute.

The R&T test results follow: 0-60 4.3sec; 0-100 10.4; 1/4 mile 12.7 sec @ 111.8 mph. Braking from: 60 - 123 ft; 80 - 220 ft.

This is not a full road test, but more of a short, update type road test and most of the other info has already been covered on this site and other tests.

Sorry about that Harry. I just clicked on Road and Track and saw V and thought that was it. The must not put the current articles online for a month or so. And I was planning on coming home tonight to read it. Guess I have to wait even longer than you.

Hey big Kahuna,
I'm assuming the test was on a XLR-V? I'd love to believe this because it would support my feeling as an old drag strip nut that this car is faster than most people think. I would love to find a performance shop that would build me one of those massive intakes like you can buy for the Vette. If 4.3 is correct, we could get maybe slip into the 3's with that intake & exhaust...........It's probably bogus and I'm just wishful thinking.
Bob....................By the way welcome. See you did have something t add to the forum

Yes Bob, it is the XLR-V that is in the June issue of R&T, ...and it is 4.3 to 60! As a regular reader of R&T I do notice that there is quite a lag between the magazine release and the corrosponding info on their website. Maybe this is a ploy to sell more magazines, but I usually forget to follow-up on their site for additional photos, etc because of this.

Thanks for the welcome Kahuna (Jon in PA)

Thanks for the info Kahuna, compared to the C&D and Motortrend they show up with the best numbers.
4.3 0-60 that`s vrooooommmmmm:thumbs

I´ll get my stock XLR from 0-100 kph (62 miles) in 5.5 well, not bad I think.

You are very welcomed from me too.

Bob, you allways were right when you said the car feels a lot stronger than these test numbers of Car&Driver. I believe you:cheers

Trust

Kahuna, Hans as you can see, is from Germany, we excuse him for his english, because most of us can't even speak German, but he is one stellar guy. We made a deal for rims last month. To show you my faith in Hans, He sent me a check with big numbers and I sent the rims the same day...........Now that's trust.
Sometimes we have to call him PVT Shcultz, but it's all in fun:seeya :seeya :seeya

I've whipped some pretty powerful cars lately and with ease. When someone starts playing with me, I usually show them what there up against and they back off from wanting to play. It's really effective from ground zero and once they see it take off, they lag back at the next light. I have run across some guys that don't believe.........................They do now.:cheers

Bob, just a few cars are able to do 0-60 in 4.3 seconds and the driver you are might can make it even a tick faster. I don`t trust this car-testers in some magazins, seems to me like if they don`t like a specific car maker they`ll give him worse numbers in their tests. But it`s the same here in Germany!

Is this a terrible english Colonel Clinic?????::lol :lol :lol

:seeya in tomorrow one month:yesnod
