Quickest/most fun... my '08 CBR600RR

2012 CTS-V Wagon. that was a blast. so fast you can't even think, but it can stop and turn on a dime. unbelievable. I've also driven an E92 M3 coupe which isn't as powerful or as quick but offers a lot more tactility than the Caddy. go figure.

other cars:
E60 M5 (stick)
996 Turbo Cabriolet
Rolls Royce Ghost- that was actually quite fun
Camaro SS
W203 C55 AMG
W220 S55 AMG

A LOT of Supras mentioned in this thread. Still happy to know that one of the powerfully modified sports cars is the MKIV. My dream car growing up.

4-banger...780whp K20 swapped Integra. But that'll be changing this coming year.

If we're talking anything I know a few disgusting V8 drag cars but they never went on the dyno. I can share the 1/8th mile times and traps

I've ridden in some powerful cars, but my favorite is my current 'toy.' It's a 2005 GTO. Cammed, Procharged, etc.

19K miles on the odometer, A/C intact, etc. Runs on E85. Ran a best of 11.033 at Bandimere Speedway in 8500' DA when the stock transmission finally let go. The engine is still stock internally.

The rear end start to let go on it yet? I ran into that issue with my 04 after a few too many 100 wet shot + drag radial launches

Syldrin · 12-28-2011, 07:15 PM

Assuming you mean me, no - I never gave it the chance to let go. An Eaton TrueTrac went in at the same time as the blower. Love that diff.

When I pulled the grenaded 4L65, I put in a built 4L80 and a 3.5" aluminum driveshaft. Bumped the stall from 3600 to 4000-4200, too.

It's freaking nutty now.

Well I feel lame. The most powerful car I've ever driven is the one I own LOL. I was at 271whp last dyno, not as exciting as all the others you guys have listed.

Sounds pretty bad when I say the fastest thing I've driven is a Hyundai.

Lonewolf · 01-08-2012, 10:01 PM

My friend's 500 hp Viper. I don't know how you can control 600 and 700 whp cars after driving the Viper...it is both orgasmic and terrifying at the same time.

2005 STI with around 465whp. It was my baby

. Sadly it is gone due to job loss
