I've seen it done in 16 seconds.

But I came across a "Fast car comparison" web page yesterday which lists the ITR as quicker to 100 than the Lotus Elise...

I don't know to which variant of the Elise the table referred, but it strikes me as odd that a car as light as the elise could hit 60 in 5.5 seconds and then take a further 11.5 seconds to reach the tonne...

Sure that can't be right?

The Elise's lack of outright power (only 118bhp in the base model) count against it at higher speeds. The times you've posted could well be correct.

Indeedy.

17-odd seconds to 100 must seem achingly slow in a car that hits sixty in 5.5.
