Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240

The Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 reaches 60 mph in 6.40 s (100 km/h in 7.14 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.01 s, tripping the lights at 99.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.71 s and the eighth mile in 10.05 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 250 GT 3.0 V12 240

The 1954 Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,310 kg with 237 bhp, which works out at 181 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 181 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.71 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,745th quickest to 60 mph, and the 100th quickest of the 129 Ferraris here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 99.7 mph, the 2,787th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 0-60 time?
The Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 reaches 60 mph in 6.40 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,745th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 quarter mile time?
15.01 s at 99.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.05 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.71 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 have?
237 bhp and 1,310 kg, which is 181 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 240 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240?
Closest here on pace: Toyota GT86 (6.39 s), Subaru BRZ (6.39 s), Kia Pro Ceed GT Mk II (6.40 s). Each one can be raced against the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 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 Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 240 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.
