Amc AMX

The Amc AMX reaches 60 mph in 5.92 s (100 km/h in 6.20 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.36 s, tripping the lights at 99.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.29 s and the eighth mile in 9.36 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 AMX

The 1968 Amc AMX is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,421 kg with 315 bhp, which works out at 222 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 222 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.29 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,175th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter. Its 99.4 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 8 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

Questions

What is the Amc AMX 0-60 time?
The Amc AMX reaches 60 mph in 5.92 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,175th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Amc AMX quarter mile time?
14.36 s at 99.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.36 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.29 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Amc AMX have?
315 bhp and 1,421 kg, which is 222 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 177 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Amc AMX?
Closest here on pace: Ferrari 330 GTC (5.93 s), Gordon Keeble G.K.1 (5.92 s), Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona (6.07 s). Each one can be raced against the Amc AMX 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 Amc AMX is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 8 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
