note: the speedos out due to diff gearing, so 120km/h on the speedo is 100km/h road speed.

on my phone i timed around 6.89 seconds roughly.

Dang!

That video was all black.

Would love to see it though. You got the file? Can you e-mail it?

Or repost a link I can see?

Could be just me???

Also, was that a shift alarm I heard towards the end?

nah, He just has the speed alarm set to 100km/hr.

You should be able to view them, they are only basic type avi's.

Try open in media player classic, or the old media player.

I was just reading a review of the holden epica when i stumbled across this.

http://www.drive.com.au/Editorial/ArticleDetail.aspx?ArticleID=39718&comparisonID=1029

"Holden's sales pitch with the Epica is "the power of a six with the economy of a four" and yet the opposite appears to be true: in the real-world the Epica is slow and (relatively speaking) thirsty.

In our laden 0-100kmh dash it was the slowest of the group with a time of 16.4 seconds and the five-speed auto seemed to be constantly searching for the right gear. Small capacity six-cylinder engines are known for not having much pulling power from low revs and the Epica is no exception."



That is disgraceful in htis day and age.
