Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS vs Ferrari 458 Italia

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Ferrari 458 Italia is the quicker car, covering it in 10.97 s at 132.3 mph against the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS’s 11.26 s — a margin of 0.29 s. To 60 mph the Ferrari 458 Italia takes 3.08 s and the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS 3.06 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 Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS or the Ferrari 458 Italia faster?
The Ferrari 458 Italia. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 10.97 s to the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS's 11.26 s, a margin of 0.29 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 3.08 s against 3.06 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
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 is the Ferrari 458 Italia 0-60 time?
The Ferrari 458 Italia reaches 60 mph in 3.08 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 10.97 s at 132.3 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS trips the lights at 124.9 mph and the Ferrari 458 Italia at 132.3 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 — 8 of 11 for the Nissan GT-R R35 550 PS and 9 of 11 for the Ferrari 458 Italia. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
