The supposedly weaker Sentra 180GT and Lancer 1.8 MX both did it in under 11. Other "135" to "140" HP cars like the Lynx RS AT (in Taiwan), the Mazda3 2.0R, and the Focus do it in around 9 and a half.
The Honda has been tested to do it under 9, but that's 155hp. The Lynx RS MT does it in 8.3.
Again, the 1.8 G Altis engine is really smooth and good at fuel conservation, but it's not 145hp. More like 120.
If you don't have a spare tire, a tire inflator using the socket of the car as power outlet is the...
