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!
2 shifts to 60? the 135 only needs 1. May be close to a stock 135 but no where close to a FBO one...We run sub 4 seconds to 60 with a good launch.
