About the B5 Bi-turbo

The 2010 Alpina B5 Bi-turbo is a rear-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,992 kg with 500 bhp, which works out at 251 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 251 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.08 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,472nd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 29th quickest of the 55 Alpinas here. Its 115.2 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 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Alpina B5 Bi-turbo 0-60 time?
The Alpina B5 Bi-turbo reaches 60 mph in 4.35 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,472nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Alpina B5 Bi-turbo quarter mile time?
12.67 s at 115.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.30 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.08 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Alpina B5 Bi-turbo have?
500 bhp and 1,992 kg, which is 251 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 313 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Alpina B5 Bi-turbo?
Closest here on pace: Lexus GS F (4.33 s), Jaguar XFR Mk I (4.36 s), Rolls-Royce Ghost II 6.6 V12 TwinTurbo 612 (4.31 s). Each one can be raced against the Alpina B5 Bi-turbo 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 Alpina B5 Bi-turbo is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
