Default S2000 Real 0-60 time?

I was wondering if anyone knew the real 0-60 time for an 00-03 S. I have seen Motortrends 0-60 in 5.2, car and driver at first rated it 6.2, then moved down to 5.4. Some places its 5.5. Put the driver aside, with the best driver possible what is the real 0-60 time? Not trying to start a war here, just wondering if anyone knows thanks!

Best possible driver....low low 5s is probably going to be the best.

Two mags over here, have it at 5.5 and 5.6 secs. With the same two mags quoting a 14.6 and 14.3 secs (respectively) 0-100 time.

All true but its very difficult for the average joe to see those kinds of numbers in his own car with any consistency.
Not to mention wearing out your clutch quickly while you practice.
