I know the speed up to 0-60 range is from 5.2sec-6sec. Depend on how you drive it.
If car had been modify then probably more faster than normal sec

I never drop it and my 0-60 is probably 6.8 seconds or something horrible like that. I was really hurt to find out after I bought my car that I would have to destroy it to get the 0-60 times I read and bragged about. I don't see 350Z owners destroying their cars to get great 0-60 times.
