BMW M2 (G87) vs Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS is the quicker car, covering it in 11.26 s at 124.9 mph against the BMW M2 (G87)’s 11.89 s — a margin of 0.62 s. To 60 mph the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS takes 3.06 s and the BMW M2 (G87) 3.63 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the BMW M2 (G87) or the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS faster?
The Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 11.26 s to the BMW M2 (G87)'s 11.89 s, a margin of 0.62 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 3.06 s against 3.63 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the BMW M2 (G87) 0-60 time?
The BMW M2 (G87) reaches 60 mph in 3.63 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 11.89 s at 118.3 mph.
What is the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS 0-60 time?
The Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS reaches 60 mph in 3.06 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 11.26 s at 124.9 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The BMW M2 (G87) trips the lights at 118.3 mph and the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS at 124.9 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 9 of 10 for the BMW M2 (G87) and 8 of 11 for the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
