It’s very interesting, the way some statistics are geographically centered, so to speak: the countries with the highest suicide rates are all in Eurasia, and most in eastern Europe; while the countries with the highest death rates are all in Africa, with the exception of Afghanistan. And the cleanest countries are primarily in Europe. I can vouch for Switzerland–amazing.
Yeah… I think the 0-60 is sort of a tough one though. I remember reading an article in Car and Driver about a 1960’s Shelby Cobra beating the Dodge Viper in a drag race and having a 0-60 of under 3 seconds. All the web pages I see now say under 4 though, so who knows?

that top ten 0-60 is lacking at least one.
the lingenfelter corvette hits 60 in a blazing 1.97 seconds.
if you include the camaro concept, you should include the ‘vette.

Ummm….doesn’t every one have a death rate of 1,000 per 1,000 people?

Grim, I think it means deaths per 1000 people each year.
