From Motor Trend Magazine:

Year Car 0-60 Seconds 1/4 Mile Time/Speed Cylinders

2000 S2000 5.2 13.8 / 100.5 4
2001 SVT COBRA 5.4 13.8 / 103.3 8
2001 Boxster S 5.4 13.9 / 100.4 6
2003 350Z 5.5 13.9 / 102.3 6
2002 S55 AMG 5.6 14.1 / 102.3 8
2003 SL500 5.7 14.2 / 100.5 8

I think our little 4-banger does quite well, don't you?
Damn, it didn't line up too well

Yes, I've run plenty of 13.8's.......you only hit 14.8's if you miss a gear or two.
