For SE model with 5 speed, it was clocked at 6.7 seconds 0-60. Not sure what the 4 speed auto figure is, but add a second or so.
For GXE model, which only game in 4 speed auto and had 30 less horsepower than SE, (160 vs 190), I've seen number from 8.5secs-10.5 secs.
I own a 92 GXE (bought it new in 92), and trust me, it 'feels' very fast off the line because of generous amount of torque.
Over the years, this car was trouble free. I had to repair the A/C unit a few years ago, but other than that, no mechanical problem what so ever. (oh, the LCD clock is start to fade a little but comes brighter when I flick it with my finger)
