The 2006 Maserati GranSport Spyder 4.2 GT V8 390 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,620 kg with 385 bhp, which works out at 238 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 238 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.12 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,657th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 34th quickest of the 79 Maseratis here. Its 111.3 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.
