Hmm, I have driven ALOT of high end cars. But fastest actual speed is in the 170s. I had a Porsche 944S with alot of work done to it when i lived in Germany. (I have a video I have posted ehre on SL doing it to.) Also owned an E46 M3 while over there. Hit 165ish in it, but it had a bad vibration above 140. I only have video of 140ish in it.

Drove a Ferrari F355 Challenge Stradale. But that was in the mountains of italy, so only hit maybe 100.

Had a Duccati 998S while I was over there. But I was a new rider and dont think i ever went over 100 for the month I had it. (should never have sold it)




if anyone wants to see some videos let me know.

Oh and to those that say those speeds are unsafe, its all in Europe where I was never breaking the law. I would safely say I have NEVER EVER gone over 95MPH in the states, and that was at the drag strip.

In the passenger seat of a former friend's heavily-tuned BMW M3 doing about 110 in a 35. Lucky to still be alive. I wanted to go for a ride, but not like that. It's amazing how everything just turns to a blur when you travel at that speed on surface streets. It's a completely different experience than doing that speed on the freeway.

My grandfather was the worlds top classic car collector a few years back (around 13-14 years ago) with over 190+ cars dating back from 1901 and up. He had everything from Ferrari's, Lambos, Road Runners, Thunderbirds, Corvettes, a Dusenberg (sp?) which was valued over $700,000 at the time of purchase, crank up cars (ones that you wound up to get them moving), some of the first race cars, old GTO's, old Cadillacs (he had the "Pink Cadillac" from one of the old moves which is slipping my mind right now). But the fastest I've been in was the Mellow Yellow that was driven in the movie "Days of Thunder". My god that thing was fast. It had the slicks on it and we drove it on the road. You open that thing up and wow!

I wnet for a ride in a Lamborghini Countach LP500QV years ago when I was stationed in Germany. It was the ugliest metallic brown, and loud and uncomfortable, but damn it was fast! We were up to 160 mph when our exit came up.

Claudia - you're a fake Ital... You just pretend with your flag colored car and last name that ends in an "o". We can all see right through your lies.
