Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258

The Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 reaches 60 mph in 7.47 s (100 km/h in 7.84 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.81 s, tripping the lights at 93.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.84 s and the eighth mile in 10.50 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 I30/I35 3.5 V6 258

The 1999 Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,495 kg with 255 bhp, which works out at 170 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.84 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 5,518th quickest to 60 mph, and the 41st quickest of the 56 Infinitis here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 93.2 mph, the 4,198th 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 Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 0-60 time?
The Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 reaches 60 mph in 7.47 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,518th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 quarter mile time?
15.81 s at 93.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.50 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.84 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 have?
255 bhp and 1,495 kg, which is 170 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 209 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258?
Closest here on pace: Maserati Kyalami (7.43 s), Cadillac STS 3.6 V6 (7.55 s), Cadillac DTS 4.6 V8 275 (7.53 s). Each one can be raced against the Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 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 Infiniti I30/I35 3.5 V6 258 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.
