2011 Nissan Xterra, but only because it's the only car I've ever owned. Brake-torque launch in 4WD will net 7.4 to 60, which isn't bad for a V6 SUV. Lately I've been looking at a Stillen supercharger kit and various high-flow mufflers. Plenty of people have gotten their Xterras to 350+ WHP with absolutely no damage, so that's where I want to go.

I never even thought of modding an Exterra, but a 350 hp Exterra would be a nice sleeper to surprise some folks with.

Impressive, that is probably a little over 500 at the flywheel. Very sharp car.

My current car. 1970 Torino 429 super cobra jet with a 3 speed auto, a 4.10 gear ratio with a Detroit locker, and ram air intake. Honeslty I don't know how fast I have gone in it but at 120 when the speedometer tops out it just keeps pulling. It's pretty crazy going that fast with a 3 speed wound up like that. Feels like the car is gonna come unglued.

Caddy CTS-V. Older one w/ 6 speed manual. Was doing 75 on I10 between seigen and highland. I dropped from 6th gear to 5th, floored it, and spun the tires. Scared the beerjeebus out of me. More car than I could safely operate.
