Zero to Sixty study

Ya know, I realized my 240D was slow (but efficient and dependable) but the other day when I pulled onto the highway from a deadstop I happened to start counting how long it took me to reach sixty mph.

I'm not talking stop watches to the tenth of a second or power braking off the line here. Just flooring it as anyone else does (in a 240D) and doing the 'ol onethousandone,onethousandtwo,etc...

Anyway, I did this and did not reach 60 mph until onethousandthirty. What are other 240D's, 300D, SD, etc... getting on this?

Just a poll.

Thanks.

p.s. Mines a '79 240D automatic.
