It's surely not about who's car is faster; I no longer drive sports cars. It's just that he thinks his car is super fast and super sexy and all I'm seeing is a four door station wagon with a little engine.

What do I drive? My daily driver is a twenty-three year old truck with 165k miles on it.
I grabbed it from here: http://www.zeroto60times.com/Mazda-0-60-mph-Times.html

"2010 Mazdaspeed 3 0-60 mph 5.1 Quarter Mile 13.7"

not the same year, but I figured close enough...

0-60 in 5.1s is pretty damn fast, but if it is actually more like 6.5s like stated in your article, then you are right it's not THAT impressive...
