The Honda Prelude 2.0 109 reaches 60 mph in 9.47 s (100 km/h in 10.02 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.24 s, tripping the lights at 81.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.89 s and the eighth mile in 11.19 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.
Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

The 1987 Honda Prelude 2.0 109 is a front-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,065 kg with 107 bhp, which works out at 101 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.89 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 9,226th quickest to 60 mph, and the 98th quickest of the 191 Hondas here. Its 81.6 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 2 of 2 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.
