I read that the 04' MC will go from 0-60 in 8.5 seconds. Is this with a standard or automatic?

5-speed....

The CVT gets about 9.5-ish as I understand depending on technique. The CVT has a hesitation on dead-stop launch that delays it a bit; you have to get the RPM's up to about 2k before the engine really "connects" with the wheels. Once the RPM's get up over 4k though it keeps pace nicely.
