For a 5th gen LS all you have to do is floor it from a dead stop, video tape it, and then time it. You're probably looking at 0-60mph in about 9.5 seconds. This is far from being the slowest Monte ever, but to be honest, I doubt the M3 was trying. Those things spank stock Z34's with no problem.

About 10 seconds or so 0-60. Like i did, stop and just mash it.
