    yep, nothing too crazy
    an 04 corvette, stock. i got to drive a stock first year new GTO and a hummer h2. but for some reason, a saab 9-5 aero seemed faster than all of them.

    my 97 corolla is a pretty mean beast too, haha

    I drove my uncle's Ferrari 400i, but I didn't do much more than let it creep down his long winding driveway. The most powerful car I've really driven hard is my dad's 275hp Caddy SLS.

    Many years ago, I got the chance to take some laps around the Ford test track in the GT-40 that won LeMans. My ex-father in law was an engineer for Ford and the car was in Detroit on the start of a promotional tour. It was noisy, stiifer than a wedding night...but it was FAST!!!

    600 hp TSi that I used to own and my friend's 900+ hp TT Supra. Others are a 04' ZO6 with Nitrous so I dk probably around 500 hp range and a mustang S/C with like about 550 hp....

    Edit: Well I just received a "reported post" and well I'll keep the member's name out from this but IF ANY OF YOU don't believe the post that's fine I don't care but that doesn't give you the right to either judge or "assume" wrong things I don't care who you are.

    Actually, just want to clearify something. The meaning of powerful does that mean a fast car, or a car with humongous HP.

    Almost...

    Most powerful: '97 Dodge Grand Caravan SE, 3.3L V6 with 158 HP (but with the rear benches out it gets going pretty quick for a van - lotsa torque).
    Fastest: I'll tell you after I race my dad's '91 318i, cause I've driven that one and my car...and that's about it. :(

    How about the best looking car you've ever driven...I can compete here. ;) Ever hear kids yell out when you drive by "Hey, look at the cool car!" :p
