Im just kinda curious what the fastest car on the street right now is. Not getting into the 2002's. 2001 and before? Thanks

 

I would say ither the Corvette Z06 or the BMW M5

12 sec cars STOCK

 

but thats probably not what you were talking about. 911 GTR3,m pulls 1/4 in 11.2 MT what about a

 

Fastest 0-60, the McLaren F1, 3.4 seconds. For less than $1,000,000, Ferrari F50 or Lamborghini Diablo 6.0, 3.6 seconds. Realistically, for less than 100,000 a Viper GTS, 4.3. Less than 50,000, M3 and Corvette are tied at 4.6.

 

The New Vipers might take the crown. 500 hp, 500 tq. We will see...

 

911 Turbo or the GT2 Turbo(might not be street legal) possibly? The McLaren hasn't been in production for a couple of years. It'll pull on a Henessy Viper so its probably the fastest street car ever made. Mercedes, Porsche, etc all made some crazy homologation race cars that are almost as fast (CLK GTR, 911 GT1). There's also the Dodge Viper and its variants. The Corvette Z06 and M5 don't really have the power to compare to Vipers or 911 Turbos. The M5 is probably one of the fastest sedans ever made but the new M3 also competes in that area.

BMW M5... very nice...

 

i forgot about the top dogs

 

Nah, it's gotta be those Insights



1.0L 67 hp inline3
0-60 mph in 15.0 sec.
1/4-mile in 19.4 sec.



I think I can outrun that thing at the strip...

 

Lets keep it under 50 Grand. Corvettes (ZO6 or regular), SS Cameros, Firebirds, BMW M3, SVT Lightnings, Audi S4 and RS4 Wagon, Last generation of Mitsu 3000 GT-VR4 and a few more (actually a lot more but thats all i can think of right now).

 

Does anyone remember the aniversary edition Trans Am GTA with the GN Turbo in it. One of the fastest production cars on Earth. 0-60 was under 5 seconds.

 

89 Turbo Trans Am,that is my next car! Those have it all, the fastest 80s car though was the Corvette ZR1.
Fastest street car today,probably the 911(or whatever)turbo,or the viper

 

-4 top 0-60 (i think)
1.the 95 mclaren F1 LM 0-60 in 2.9 secs, top speed 240 mph with 668hp.
2.the 99 ferrari koenig F50. 0-60 in 3 secs, top speed 231 mph with 828 hp.
3.tied with that is the 99 nissan skyline blitz gt-r r 348
0-60 in 3 secs, top speed 213 mph with 850 hp
4.tied as well is the 94 Schuppan 962 CR 0-60 in 3 secs, top speed 214 mph with 600 hp...
-4 top top speeds (i think)
1.409.9 kph / 254.7 mph 1988 Chevrolet Callaway Sledgehammer Corvette
2.402.3 kph / 250.0 mph 1994 Dauer 962 LeMans
3.402.3 kph / 250.0 mph 1992 Vector WX3 Concept
4.4.400 kph / 248.5 mph 2001 Lotec Sirius Concept
note: some of these cars are well over 1000000... sorry if thats not what u wanted....

 

My friend had that first edition ZR1 and he took me for a ride. He could bring it to 80 in second gear.

 

ooh, my friend has a 99 trans am w/ ram air, his previous owner tweeked it up to 385 hp. what time do u think it can make in the 1/4 mile, and how fast do u think its 0-60 time would be? my friend has no clue, and i thought someone might know.. thanks..

 

I've always wanted a Buick Grand National. I'd prolly be arrested for how I would drive that thing.

 

KLA!

I was thinking the ford festiva! way killer car.




kidding.

 

Anybody ever heard of a car called the Vector? It was a late '80s concept with like 740hp that could make 80 or 100 mph in 1st gear.

 

i think i'd go with the mclaren... but after looking at the latest edition of r&t... that gt2 just blew my mind!

 

Hey deezo, any 4th gen auto Maxima can go OVER 80 in 2nd gear. Seriously.

 

Yeah, the Mclaren can carry 3 people too.

 

These cars are nothing but full blown race cars without the logos. Can you imagine going 255 MPH?. 125 is scary enough in a Max.

 

All of your dream cars... 0-60 fastest, most $$$, ect.

Love this website..

I'd have to say the Corvette Z06. It's turque makes you feel like you're being exposed to extreme G forces. The M5 BMW would also be up there.

 

This question is pretty vague, no wonder we're getting this variety of responses.

 

In general, fastest means highest top speed. Quickest usally means best acceleration. Which did you mean anyway?

 

The turbo TA was quite a beast... same motor as the GNX (which was the fastest car GM made that year, according to Motor Trend Television) but lighter. according to one source i have they ran a 13.4 and 0-60 in 4.9. I'd say the fastest in the realistic category (under 150K ) is the Viper GTS, 911 Turbo (in all its variants, sub 4 seconds 0-60), Ferrari 360. Vette Z06 and 2001 M3 (0-60 in 4.7, tremendous performance for $48,000), Lotus Esprit V8 turbo. there are probably some others that i haent mentioned so if anyone wants to add any. The Mitsu 3KGT from the latest years went 0-60 in about 4.7 as well, but that was more a function of AWD than tremendous power (though 320 hp isnt anything to scoff at)

 

Dude, you can't bring up the Lotus Esprit Turbo V8 until you talk about the Inline 4 with a turbo that came before the V8. Monstrous!!!

Just estimates, but my previous car was a 94 Z28 with more than a few internal and external mods. It was dynoed at 380hp. I never truly checked the 0-60 times, but 1/4 mile was usually in the upper 12 sec range, pushing 13. I would guess 0-60 times around 4.7 or 4.8 maybe.

 

ah-hem, ah-hem.. did someone say TYPHOON?? for about 30 grand in 92/93..

 

haha ya, hey thats where i got my info from, supercars.net... i just said i think to make myself look very smart !!! hahaha but tahts crazy goin over 200+ mph,
oh and thanks ajefee, thats pretty good , now my friend just has to learn to shift better! haha

 

Try a typhoon from a 20 mph roll. The strength of that and the syclone are in the launch.
A lot of the cars mentioned arent factory cars,many are aftermarket, or ones that the production is 6 per year.
Many drivers cannot duplicate the 0-60 times of the mags,too weak a launch,or too much gas and your done in many of them. Floor a viper and your standing still,bmw Z8s are a 13 sec car,unless you ride the rev limiter(wont last),Honda S2000,shift at 6000rpm and, well take a guess.

 

true.. the typhoon is most dangerous at a standstill. but.. thats just cause of the awd.. its still got 285 ponies runnin with it at 20 mph... with a hypertech chip, you can bump that up to 360 horse with 440 lb foot of torque... anyone got a max that will give it a run??
