You're basically saying the RR Sport SC covers 1/2 mile in under 16 seconds...it doesn't. That would make it faster than a Bugatti Veyon...it isn't. It has a lot of power but it's heavy at 5900 lbs...I think the last test I saw listed it at 13.7 in the 1/4, so a tad slower than an E46 M3, but no slouch. Definitely a bit quicker than the 4.8 but it shouldn't leave you for dead.
Umm I know my cars. You could instantly tell the difference after seeing a 2010 once... Not that hard

I will be sure to get out and measure next time I race. Maybe it wasn't quarter mile but by the time I did reach quarter mile, the Range Rover was gone. Whether it was a quarter mile ahead, 1 mile, 10 miles IDC. It was ahead by quite a bit.
Maybe it had a Bugatti engine.. never know whats under the hood of these Dubai cars...
