Porsche 718 Cayman vs Lexus LC 500

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Porsche 718 Cayman is the quicker car, covering it in 12.81 s at 108.9 mph against the Lexus LC 500’s 12.95 s — a margin of 0.15 s. To 60 mph the Porsche 718 Cayman takes 4.18 s and the Lexus LC 500 4.63 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 Porsche 718 Cayman or the Lexus LC 500 faster?
The Porsche 718 Cayman. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 12.81 s to the Lexus LC 500's 12.95 s, a margin of 0.15 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.18 s against 4.63 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Porsche 718 Cayman 0-60 time?
The Porsche 718 Cayman reaches 60 mph in 4.18 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.81 s at 108.9 mph.
What is the Lexus LC 500 0-60 time?
The Lexus LC 500 reaches 60 mph in 4.63 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.95 s at 112.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Porsche 718 Cayman trips the lights at 108.9 mph and the Lexus LC 500 at 112.1 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 Porsche 718 Cayman and 9 of 10 for the Lexus LC 500. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
