Fastest: A 2015 Camaro SS with 455HP/455LB Torque

Most expensive: 2016 Tahoe LTZ $71K.

Still shocked that truck cost $10K more than the Kia K900 I drove before it, which was very nice.


After 50K-60K, I dont really see much of the justification for some of the price jumps (10-30K) on these luxury vehicles other than the badge on the outside.

Fastest: Twin turbo Lamborghini Gallardo. Has something like 1,200 horsepower on C16 and 1,000 horsepower on pump gas. That thing was a monster.

Most expensive: Probably the same car. I think they go for around $225k new, and Dallas Performance put $100k of work into it. The car is a few years old, so it's probably worth around $250k.

Most expensive car I've ridden in was a Porsche 918, $1.5+ mil.

Fastest, neighbor's fox body.

Most expensive, used to do valet parking so. Had a few Ferrari 360s and 911 Turbos and an S65 nothing really crazy though. Didn't really get to drive them much. If it was off-site parking maybe a couple blocks to a garage. Most expensive car I've ever driven really was an E63

Probably fastest and most expensive are a buddy's 87 Testarossa. Whenever I visit him he almost insists that I drive one of his many collector or exotic cars. He and his wife, both nuclear engineers, and child free for years, live in a modest house with a very immodest garage behind it. He's retired now and just fools with cars all day long. They have a 348 and a 430 as well as the TR. Several Porsche, M-B too.

I was a bit surprised at how wide the TR felt on the road - about like a 60's Impala. It's not a small car. The 348 is a good bit smaller and so to me a bit more confidence inspiring on the road, like I have some room to maneuver without leaving my own lane.

The fastest was a 97 viper GTS I owned that was supercharged and nitroused. Had just under 1000lbs of torque. Insanely fast and scared the hell out of any passenger and me too sometimes. That's also been the most expensive car I've been in as well as owned.

Fastest Probably Nascar track car It was kinda sorta a Dodge once upon a time I think

Most Expensive. Possibly a Rare Packard no idea what it was worth. I delivered it after it was repaired. The guy I delivered it fro was very nervous. I wasn't, I was judgmenet proof at the time. . I drove a Bentley (equivalent of a Cloud II I think), I do not know what they are worth. Probably not that much. In +/- 1981 I test drove a 1971 Baracuda Hemi convertable. It was for sale for $750 (very rusty). However I saw one sell for $2 million in about 1989 +/- and I heard they later sold one for $4 million - but those were not all rusted out. At least not at the time of sale. So if you consider that a $4 million car or even $2 million - that would be the most expensive. In 1984 or 1985 I got to drive a GTO Judge for two days. Those are pretty expensive now too.
