Sorry, had to edit the second line out (for your benefit and the clubs 
). All sorts of people browse the forum....
Standard time from 0-100 is about the 7 second mark from memory (a little slower than that in a tiptronic though)

i have a stock GPX manual and although i have never actually timed i have counted and i think it was just under or very close to 7 seconds.
so i personally think that 10s for a GPX FTO is slow

Bad...very bad... a stock auto fto should be able to do high 7s if launched properly. Even with no launch (i.e. off brake and just stomp it), i would expect low 8's give or take.
My old auto 1.6 corolla did it in 10s =/ (modded but still..).
Sorry don't mean to be harsh.
maggsy,
Stock manny fto launched properly is around the low 7 mark...pretty accurate counting you got there
