Some cars seem much slower but the power delivery is so seamless it's deceiving. Also, as said before, weight, gearing, the torque curve, how an engine is tuned to deliver the power and where it peaks all effect how a car feels with acceleration. I've had the privelige to drive D-Type Jags and E-Type Jag race cars on the track, and the difference in tune of the same displacement engines was amazing. My 900s seems relatively quick, but it's so subdued in it's manners that I sometimes get surprised by how fast I actually am going.
