These figures tend to get thrown around a lot when it comes to cars, with both petrolheads and non-petrolheads.

I've found that people's expectations differ as to whether a car is slow, poky, fast, or supercar. Some people think a 6-second to 60 is major quick, whereas others won't settle for a time above 4 seconds.

So I pitch to you - what are your boundaries for the following?

Slow:
Decent:
Fast:
Supercar:

Here are mine as an example.

Slow:above 9 seconds
Fair:7.0-9.0
Poky:5.0-7.0
Fast:4.0-5.0
Supercar:below 4 seconds

Now I know there are anomalies are that (i.e many supercars taking over 4 seconds to reach 60 but powering on from there after) but it'd be nice to see what you folks thing. Bit of harmless fun, I suppose.
