Fast cars?
Forums › General Discussion › Fast cars?-
Nice rides...Currently I have a 97 Jaguar xk8 convertible that needs repair (again) but deceptively fast when it is working, a 91 miatta convertible that looks brand new (not fast), a 98 bmw m3 convertible with about 60 Hp over stock (fast enuf for me), and a few other vehicles..My current fav ride isn't my fastest, but gets at least a picture or two taken of it every day...here is a picture:

I've got a 2007 M5 in carbon black.. Love it.Anyone got a BMW m5 or 760? I'm wondering how well they handle in the winter. We get a lot of snow up here, and I can't really justify buying another toy to myself. But I might be able to if I trade my suv. Anyone know how traction is in either of those?
Have owned:
Ford focus st
Ford mondeo st220
BMW 540i
BMW 530d
VW golf gti
Currently trying to negotiate a good price for a 2009 Jag XKR.... -

Agreed. Any rear wheel drive car will suffer in the snow but those particular cars will as the DSC always assumes your on Tarmac. Disabling it totally helps to a degree but it still isn't going to stop the superminis zooming past and laughing.
Apart from that, the E60 and F10 M's are beasts, the new 7 is good too.
Had a work semi-track day with the new MINI Coupe yesterday which was a giggle

Everything here sounds like a joy to drive but I'll stick with my family mover. '95 GMC Suburban, K2500 w/454 v8, 4" lift on 33" & has 180k miles and still has excellent emissions. In my youth I was driving an 85 Supra.

My friends got a BMW 330 and last year it got stuck in the snow on a flat surface!.....they are useless in the white stuff.
My impreza has embarrassed alot of cars,off the line I've beaten a few porsches and M series cars.
My friends got a '03 STI with 625bhp and is the fastest thing ive ever been in.....its done a 10.6sec quarter.it's had 80k spent on it,25k on the engine 😳 -

Currently building a n/a k20/24 it's stroked out to a 2.6L, I'm putting it in a del sol. motors almost done I just need to figure awd or just front.
With fwd I'm guessing low 10's maybe breaking 9's in the 1/4
Awd I may be losing some power but it is something different. -
