The Mazda 6 MPS reaches 60 mph in 5.43 s (100 km/h in 5.74 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.04 s, tripping the lights at 97.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.15 s and the eighth mile in 9.02 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 2006 Mazda 6 MPS is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,616 kg with 256 bhp, which works out at 158 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.15 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,597th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 4th quickest of the 201 Mazdas here. Its 97.7 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 9 of 10 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.
