fastest car my buddies dads 69 camaro with a 502 ramjet that had over 800hp. that was sweet i think we had it going like270 kmh and the best handling was probably a s2000. the most bad a-- vehicle definately my buddy tims 2004 f350 with an 8 inch lift and 44 inch M/T mud tires on it definately a lil monster truck

Best handling car I've driven would be Formula Ford 2000's. Those babies stop and turn on a dime!! For a street car it would have to be an S2000. Even though I only went around the track in the rain in the S2000 it was just so responsive and balanced.

Best handling (I rode, not drove) was an SLK convertable last fall on Croation coast and the fastest (again rode , did not drive), was my brothers 69 (70?) Chevelle SS 454 with over 525 hp, he scared the livin' bejeebers out of me when let it go and the front end came off the ground by a foot and a half - thought the seat bracket was going to break.

best handling car has to be a supercharged lotus exige a friend lent me for the weekend.......and quickest without doubt was 4.5 V8 TVR cerbera, 440bhp in a car that weighs just 1100kg 0-100mph in 8.2 seconds, insane for a road car...................

2002 Porsche 996 Turbo. Great acceleration. My roommates 95 benz c280 handled like a dream. He lowered it and had bilsteins, it was amazing. But, over any of that, my R6 rocks anything fast and handles better

Has anybody ever driven an Ariel Atom?? I would buy that car in a second if I could get one over here.

There was a conversation a little while ago, I think on Probetalk about how the slalom numbers on the 93 Ford Probe are actually better than a couple modern $100K+ exotic sports cars.

Doesn't surprise me. The Protege MP3 can get through the slalom faster than a 911.

I've actually driven the Ariel Atom this summer as part of the AAE and it has been the fastest and best handling car I've ever been in.
