Well, I clocked it and no.. it's not 5 secs or less. Coming from a different car I just felt like it's less than 5 secs. I did a few tries and still couldn't get it under 7 secs. Roads are wet here.. raining for last 5 days in Minneapolis. Will give it another few shots when it's dry and post a video.

Congrats!!! Its a great car, you'll love it.
My advice to you since you're going to keep it a long time, drive it on trips, and obviously you live where it snows...is invest in a full hood/fenders/bumper clear bra application. Do it right away so you can lock in the factory newness, the paint does chip very easily.

Went to dealer and couple other local installers.
Posting the price if it's helpful for anyone.. I know different regions have different prices.. but here we go..
Dealer Price:
- Gold Package: Hood and Fender (22 inches), Mirrors and Door Edges - $650
- Platinum Package: Gold + Add Bumper - $900
- Performance Package: Full Hood, Full Fender, Bumper, Mirrors, Door Edges - $1400
- Full Hood, Full Fender, Bumper, Mirrors, Door Edges, Door Cups, Lights - $1350
- Full Hood and 24 inches of Fender, Bumper, Mirrors, Door Edges, Door Cups, Lights - $950
- Hood and Fender (24 inches), Bumper, Mirrors, Door Edges, Door Cups, Lights - $650
This installer said they won't do XPEL and dealer does XPEL and not 3M and also said it's hard to cut for the full hood size and even if they cut it, can't be wrapped.
- Hood and Fender (18 inches), Bumper, Mirrors, Headlights, Door Edges and Door Cups = $730, Add $100 for 24 inches
I haven't decided between 3M Venture Shield and XPEL Ultimate yet.
