I'm gonna have to say my friends fully built 90 civic lx 4-door is the fastest I've been in. Runs 11.66 at 126.4mph in the 1/4. Maked 372 whp on his old B-18 setup. Now he has a fully built B-20 vtec making 471whp on 15 lbs. The motor is built to handle probably double that.
His car scares the crap outta me. In 3rd gear at about 60mph he can stomp on the gas and he just loses all traction. I watched him race an brand new srt viper and he stay side by side with the viper even though he was spinning the whole time. The guy in the viper would go on the interstate cause he didnt wanna get walked all over.

For instance, the Buggati Veyron. Only 300 will EVER be produced. So that means less have been so far. A few have been wrecked, a few are pure race cars, a few are in museums and a bunch are owned by movie stars we will never meet.
The odds that 3 different Scion owners on this site have driven in one are extremely extremely slim. Not trying to call them liars or nothing, but a thread like this is pointless with out pictures and whatnot.
And other cars like the 1200HP vipers and all, hennesey only made a handful and not many people can afford to do it on their own. And there are a handful of people that have been in them....Scion owners must have pretty good odds of knowing and riding/driving the rarest cars in the world!!!!

well I dont have to prove that I have been in a veyron as well as ridden it in. If you feel I am full of it thats fine because that wont change the fact that I have ridden in one lol. This thread was asking what fastest are the cars you have been in... I am not gonna sit there and go oh well I better not include that people wont believe me...lol...

That's my last name on the side of the car, but it's my uncle's car. That's me in the car, about to pull it up on the alignment rack.
Now THAT is fast. Talk about HOT too. I was begging to get out after about 5 laps. This was a practice session at Skip barber in Birmingham, Al.

An ex-nascar, somewhat of a detuned version at the Richard Petty Driving Experience at Daytona - around 160-170mph.
Sitting still, I'll say either a Ford GT, some sort of Mazda rotary closed cockpit race car (not the 787B unfortunately), Mosler-Trenne MT900R, something along those lines.
