Lamborghini Silhouette P300

The Lamborghini Silhouette P300 reaches 60 mph in 6.08 s (100 km/h in 6.35 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.47 s, tripping the lights at 101.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.55 s and the eighth mile in 9.54 s, reaching 100 mph in 13.98 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 Silhouette P300

The 1976 Lamborghini Silhouette P300 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,240 kg with 247 bhp, which works out at 199 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 199 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.55 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,342nd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 77th quickest of the 83 Lamborghinis here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 101.8 mph, the 2,405th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 7 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 Lamborghini Silhouette P300 0-60 time?
The Lamborghini Silhouette P300 reaches 60 mph in 6.08 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,342nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Lamborghini Silhouette P300 quarter mile time?
14.47 s at 101.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.54 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.55 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Lamborghini Silhouette P300 have?
247 bhp and 1,240 kg, which is 199 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 260 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Lamborghini Silhouette P300?
Closest here on pace: Lotus Esprit Turbo (6.05 s), Shelby GT350 (6.15 s), Ferrari Mondial T (6.04 s). Each one can be raced against the Lamborghini Silhouette P300 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 Lamborghini Silhouette P300 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 7 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.
