What's the fastest car you've ever driven / been in?

I drove my cousin's M5. That thing is FAST once it reaches highway speeds. I did 60 - 130 in a very short amount of time. Very impressive car.

I've been in a Dodge Viper. It didn't go anywhere when I was in it. I've also driven modded GTIs, Jettas, and WRXes. I've also ridden in some suped-up older Camaros when I was in my teens. I think that's as fast as I've gotten.

Fastest car I've ever been in would have to be my grandpa's 1993 Ferrari Testarossa. V12 and rear wheel drive, that thing flew from the passenger seat. Fastest I ever rode in it was 140 mph, but my dad and his buddy (state trooper) took it up to 170 one time, but were running out of room to "safely" drive that speed.

Fastest car I've ever driven is my dads Toyota Avalon. That thing can fly. But doesn't compare to what the Ferrari was capable of before it got sold.

I drove my brother's 91 Nissan 300. I didn't think it was fast until I took it out for a spin. I got to 130 in 3rd gear and I let off of it. I actually got scared to see what the other 2 gears do.

Been in: my father in laws 86' Porsche 911 Turbo..it is modded beyond belief and has 425 HP..I think stock is 285ish HP. He had it up to 130 in a blink of an eye. He told me a story of how he raced a newer Porsche 911 Turbo and they were going 165+ on a CA highway. He has a witness for this too!!

Driven: I drove a family friends 97' Porsche Carrera S to prom. That thing was fast but had a weird clutch. I honestly prefer my FA5's stick over that one.
