Hey folks. I'm considering trading up to a 2003 S model, from my 97 Base. I've been trying to get a sense of the increase in kick by looking at 0-60 stats. The trouble is I'm seeing a full second difference in different reports...

zeroto60times.com rates my 1997 @ 6.5, and Wikipedia @ 6.7
zeroto60times.com rates the 2003 S @ 5.0, and Wikipedia @ 6.0

That second discrepancy is why I'm asking...there's a BIG difference between .5 seconds faster, and 1.5 seconds faster!
I'm hoping a 2003 S will give me the kick my base model is missing, and will push me back in my seat more like my 1989 C4 used to do.

Thoughts?
