2018 Infiniti Q60 Red Sport. 400+ hp and a lot of fun to drive. With a few mods ( tune, high pressure fuel pumps, e85 fuel sensor, lower Down pipes) it can make about 600 rwhp on e85.
I really want to add hp but I think I’m giving this car to my eldest son. He certainly doesn’t need more hp. Sure would love to blow the doors off vetts and many of the local exotics around town. |

2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. 3.6 second 0 - 60, top speed of 191, although I've never taken mine over 130.
Now I'll make a statement that many of you won't believe. My 164 horsepower Fiat 124 Spider is more fun to drive. I can only drive the Giulia to a fraction of it's capability on public streets. I can wring out the Fiat, and I do it almost every time I drive it. It truly is more fun to drive a slow car fast than to drive a fast car slow. Edit to add: Assuming you don't artificially limit yourself to straight line acceleration. |

Quickest was a 2004.5 Chevy Duramax. After I finished the engine, tranny, and suspension work it would run low 12s in the 1/4 mile. Not bad for a 7k lb truck.

My 66 Mustang has around 380whp and thanks to a lot of suspension/brake upgrades can handle on par with my 2015 GT PP.
Up til 120mph I am betting the 66 is quicker. Once it gets to body work it will be able to come out fitting 275 wide tires on the back instead of current 225s. 2015 GT PP is fastest but dont think I have had it above 125-130. My 95 Cobra and old 3v GT have both gone higher than that. Babied the start but pulls pretty well on the street. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I've never owned a car. Only trucks. Could still play. 2000 Ford Lightning. Way more power than traction. Couldn't get out of the hole to save it's ass, but once the ties got a hold of something, it would pull hard enough to surprise many a people. Nothing about it was stock. 1/8 mile track. 60ft time was embarrassing, heck all the times were bad, high 8s low 9s, but the damn thing trapped at 115-120. I really should have tried something other than 4 year old Toyo Proxys for traction |

My LB7 was a high 12s truck, it topped out at 132, ran out of revs not power. That was plenty fast enough for me in a 7k lb truck with noodles for tie rods and not enough brakes.

72 Cutlass Supreme with the Rocket V8 350
WAY too much car for a 16 year old Sold it after 2 years for a truck because premium fuel was expensive AF in 2007  Fastest I've been in a car that I've owned is my current DD: an 04 Acura RSX Buried the needle at 140 late at night on the George Bush Turnpike going to Richardson and only slowed down when I HEARD the WOOSH of air of going under an overpass. Still driving her today with 270k on the clock. She can still get up and go but I'm liking the 32 MPG on the highway and no car payments

My current Stinger GT is fairly quick by today's standards, but not anything particularly special: 0-60 in the upper 4's and low 13's in the quarter. It has over four times the horsepower of the CRX I had in college, but some of the most fun I've ever had driving a car was in the CRX on an SCCA course. |

Probably my old Buell S-2. It wasn't crotch rocket fast but would cause guys to break out in a sweat in the curves. The handling was fantastic. The Ohio State Highway Patrol clocked it at 135 wound out fully so it wasn't really even hanging with the 600s on the straights.
I'm saving some nickels and dimes for a real sports car for retirement. Something just North of 2,000 pounds with a Ford FE 427. Maybe I'll find a late model GT Mustang donor car but the FE seems to be the way I'm going. |

Owned? 1990 Suzuki GSX-R 1100. Stupid fast. Me and my GF on straightaways at 140 no issues.
In Minecraft, of course… Driven? 2016 Huracan. Stupid fast performance car. Favorite? 1989 Bentley Turbo R. Just amazing. Such a great vehicle. I’ve also driven an ‘84 Supra Turbo (my Dad’s), an 88 944 Turbo, and a 91 Testarossa. Funny thing was, the Ferrari and Bentley were the same day. Down from Hollywood Hills, into BH. Did the Rodeo drag. Ferrari got noticed. Bentley got attention… Yeah, class and money. Know your audience. |

2018 Mustang GT 6 speed. Damn that car had long legs for speed. 1989 Mazda RX-7, BNR stage 4 turbo. I worked for pineapple racing and built a 13B tuned to the 500WHP range. Never measured it with GPS but it had zero problems burning the needle 160+ and still had plenty to go in 4th gear. Still have the RX-7 to this date. Haven’t started it in a good 10 years. I will have to tear it down and refresh the seals before I fire it up again. |
