How much of an effect dose the mile high elevation have on the GS 430's performance? Eg. 0-60, 1/4 mile. Cause i dont think i can get 5.9 from 0-60 up here in Denver. I assume most tests are performed at sea level or close to it.

I have the same car you do, save for the Nav/Lev, and I live at 6,000 feet. I can't give you a specific answer, but the car is plenty fast. And everyone on the road around you is also driving at elevation, so you should be able to dust most of them.

GSpilot,

I'm so glad there's another member in Denver. I'm not sure how your car will perform here, but if you want to test, this October there's an IDRC even in bandimere speedway you can run your car there. Maybe we all can meet up there with other colorado member also.
