The 1986 Saab 900 Cabrio 2.0 128 is a front-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,280 kg with 126 bhp, which works out at 98 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.00 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 10,932nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 72nd quickest of the 86 Saabs here. Its 78.1 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.

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.
