Not sure where you got those ZL1 numbers from but they are not correct at all. Maybe you meant an SS?

(Assuming you wanted the manual trans numbers)
Also you left off the TTS time which is what matters anyway. 12.8 vs 12.4 is a bus length+ in the 1/4. The TTS would only be competitive to 60 due to AWD. So the numbers of 0-60 is the only place the Audi owner would even get that idea, and shows how little he understands about the performance of his car.
