Well to be honest an 86 needs a pretty aggressive launch to get to its rated 6.5 or so seconds 0-60 times.

A minivan does it in like 7.5-8 seconds, and its just mash the gas and go.
The euro market ratings for the 86 0-60 are a whole second slower (0-100 in 7.6 seconds) Since 0-60mph is equal to 0-96 km/h I highly doubt it takes a whole second to cover that missing 4km/h

Its just a running gag at this point about how an 86 is just too damn slow, whereas inversely minivans are now stupidly fast for how big and heavy they are. (and neither are considered fast by todays metric....)
