Errr dont get too excited, you are going to be absolutely MILES behind him becuase automatic lard bucket Camrys are NOT fast. According to what I can find, the 3.0 V6 takes 9 seconds to hit 60. agw's car is so much faster it would be comical to watch.
30-70 vid
Have verified the speedo and the speedo is accurate at 30mph. 72mph speedo is 70mph GPS. Rather annoying as the car hits the limiter at 70mph speedo so I could have saved ~0.3s on the gear change.
Anyways I can only estimate at the time at ~5s, if anyone can work it out better let me know.

Got home, was sick then collapsed on my bed screaming 'Muuuussstaaaang'!!!
Was cool cheers m8, was wired a tad after

Well I think its only fair the time is taken from speedo just like everyone else in this thread which would put your time at 4.5s
What Elise is it by the way?
S1 111s. 745kg (without my lardy arse) and ~145bhp.
OT: Seeing as the Mustang is on its way have you considered an Elise as you have the BMW as a 2nd car. There are a quite a few modded ones out there with close on 300bhp (Audi/Honda engine conversions) that would give the Stang a run for it's money in a straight line and go round corners properly

Only got old vids of my first Evo.
Stock E3 GSR at the time.
Vid is cut from a 0-xx test so obviously this is not done from a constant speed.

Hi there
Unfortunately for me if I was too consider something like an Elise I'd just skip that step and go straight to an Atom.
After my experiences in an Elise and VX220 N/A and VX220 Turbo I simply just don't like them as a car for use on UK roads. An M3 CSL is as hardcore as I can take for the road. Also the Elise and VX220 I found were really quick of the mark but at motorway speeds were not particular quick, the VX220 Turbo was OK but its power delivery spoiled what that car is all about which is handling.
Its possible in a few years time when I've got my own place, reasonable car that I might go and buy an Atom for fun, will see how things go.

ok, well if that's where it's timed to, mine should be dropped to about 4.2 as well then!
(not trying to be pedantic about it or anything! ) For the 4.5 time I let the speedo get to 75... Let me know if you disagree! Not that it makes much difference to you... the mustang is still way ahead!

HI there
I don't disagree at all.
