Could it be certain point in which Horsepower is achieved?
Or a certain 1/4 mile time?
How about destroying a certain % of cars on the road?
A personal goal?


When you think of your car being fast what defines that?

i dont think many cars could kill a mclaren even if they are fixed up...(ya know with a BMW v12 produced to be extremly light, and have the most HP #'s it could put out and all) but a milion in cash could get you some nice cars ;-)

very true. as far as the enzo and mclaren are concerned these cars are the apitamy of automotive engineering. think power to weight ratio and ground hugging aerodynamics. sure there are some kit cars out there that can approach them but you aren't gonna modify a production supra to compete with a mclaren in handling and all out speed.
