Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128

The Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 reaches 60 mph in 8.19 s (100 km/h in 8.64 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.31 s, tripping the lights at 85.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.68 s and the eighth mile in 10.56 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Spider 2.0 128

The 1983 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,040 kg with 126 bhp, which works out at 121 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 121 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.68 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,900th quickest to 60 mph, and the 106th quickest of the 268 Alfa Romeos here. Its 85.9 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 0-60 time?
The Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 reaches 60 mph in 8.19 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,900th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 quarter mile time?
16.31 s at 85.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.56 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.68 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 have?
126 bhp and 1,040 kg, which is 121 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 190 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128?
Closest here on pace: MG MGF 1.8i (8.20 s), Fiat 124 Sport Spider 1.8 118 (8.00 s), Opel Astra Cabriolet 2.2 16V 147 (8.20 s). Each one can be raced against the Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 128 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
