Obviously, there are other factors, like aerodynamics, drivetrain losses, peaky torque curves, etc. However, these are not as significant, as they are all pretty similar between different cars, as most modern cars use fairly similar technology.
For example, Company A might have an auto transmission with 7% power loss, while company B's model has 10% loss. In the end, this is 3%. You just won't find a modern car with a 30% loss in the tranny.

Audi's all wheel drive cars have a 24% percent drivetran loss according to them.
I was just trying to point out that there were other varibles in terms of 0-60 besides hp and wieght.

Wow! assuming 3800lb for my remapped 535d and 340BHP, it comes in at 5.48 seconds. this would be consistent with what other people are saying actual figures on the road about similarly remapped 535d's
Cool
Cool
I think a round 6 sec would be nice ...
