About the B5 Biturbo Touring

The 2011 Alpina B5 Biturbo Touring is a rear-drive turbocharged estate of 1,990 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 2.04 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,346th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 25th quickest of the 55 Alpinas here. Its 114.6 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 Biturbo Touring 0-60 time?
The Alpina B5 Biturbo Touring reaches 60 mph in 4.24 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,346th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Alpina B5 Biturbo Touring quarter mile time?
12.64 s at 114.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.25 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.04 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Alpina B5 Biturbo Touring have?
500 bhp and 1,990 kg, which is 251 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 303 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Alpina B5 Biturbo Touring?
Closest here on pace: Mercedes-AMG C43 AMG Estate 2.0 4MATIC 408 (4.21 s), Mercedes-AMG E43 AMG T-Modell (S213) 3.0 V6 4MATIC 401 (4.21 s), Holden Commodore Wagon 6.2 V8 413 (4.39 s). Each one can be raced against the Alpina B5 Biturbo Touring 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 Biturbo Touring 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.
