My tC is faster than a Corvette and a Viper!
So is yours!! According to Car and Driver The top gear acceleration in a Corvette from 30-50 is 10.2 seconds the Viper does it in 10.3 and the tC does it in 8.5 Seconds! The top gear acceleration in a Corvette from 50-70 is 9.8 seconds in a Viper 9.7 seconds and in a tC 9.0 seconds! If you would ever be stupid enough to race a viper or a corvette hopefully they would mess up and upshift too early

I pulled up on a viper and told the driver lets see what u got, he told me to go first. I took off and got about 15 cars head of him then he took off and just blew by me like a bat at off hell!!! Best of all he didn't get the car out of third gear.

So am I to understand that they tested this 30-50mph in 5th gear or do they drop it to 3rd from 5th? What type of real-world application does this have? Sounds like a pretty pointless stat to me.

i've been in a viper and i dont think ive ever experienced acceleration like that in my life, it is absolutlely amazing and i dont care how much these numbers can appear confusing, but like everyone else said the viper would ____ on the tC...
i'm getting one as my next car even if it takes 7-10 years!
