I would surprise many cars- although after 60, forget it. I'll bet it would be pretty close to 60 versus a 135i although the 135 would take it at some point after that. The newer STI's are about the same to 60, maybe a tad slower due to an extra shift- 6 speed to get to 60 versus WRX 5 speed. Although they make up for it with the extra HP once they get going. And if the roads were wet- that WRX was almost untouchable- that's when I had the most fun with it!
Slower due to an extra shift? No car takes 3 shifts to get to 60...
