About the M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164

The 1990 Infiniti M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,622 kg with 162 bhp, which works out at 100 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 100 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 3.06 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 9,050th quickest to 60 mph, and the 54th quickest of the 56 Infinitis here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 86.3 mph, the 6,714th 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.

The Infiniti M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164 reaches 60 mph in 9.37 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,050th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Infiniti M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164 quarter mile time?
17.31 s at 86.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.57 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.06 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Infiniti M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164 have?
162 bhp and 1,622 kg, which is 100 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 204 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Infiniti M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164?
Closest here on pace: Chrysler PT Cruiser Convertible 2.4 143 (9.39 s), MINI Roadster (R59) Cooper 1.6 122 (9.47 s), Fiat 124 Sport Spider 1.6 110 (9.37 s). Each one can be raced against the Infiniti M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164 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 M30 Convertible 3.0 V6 164 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.
