Like the VW Bug billboard from 3 years ago, I would state it like this.

"0 - 60 ?, yes." and leave it at that.

Actually, since my tune up, 0-60 has not seems like an issue, tho I've not timed it. It's merely going up steep hills that my 2.1 has difficulty with.

I talk nicely to it, stroke the dash when I'm rough in it, and I pat it when it gets me to my destination with out breaking down. Then, when I'm out of ear shot, I sigh heavily, relieved that I made it with out breaking down. :).
