GarageCalc Where 5.7 s sits
At 5.7 s the Mazda MX-5 Miata (ND) is quick (4.5 to 6.0 s). 50 of the 70 vehicles in the database are quicker and 19 are slower, so it beats 27% of the field.

The dataset does not retain a source URL or rollout method for every entry. Treat the 5.7 s figure as a reference, and verify a matching model year, trim and test method before making a close comparison. To estimate quarter-mile elapsed time and trap speed from power and weight, use the quarter mile calculator; and before fitting bigger wheels, check the tire size comparison, because a larger tire diameter lengthens the effective gearing and blunts the launch.
