The 1984 Pontiac Fiero GT is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,225 kg with 139 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 114 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.83 s. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,740th quickest to 60 mph, and the 10th quickest of the 11 Pontiacs here. Its 87.9 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 7 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.
