Biggest Displacement Engine - Owned? If so 7.0L Most Horsepower - Owned? If so, Over 500 Top Speed Achieved - Well over 160 MPH (Speedo stopped at 160 in that car) Farthest Distance Driven - NJ to FL Most Expensive Car Driven - Maybe the 458 Italia. I forget First Car Driven - '88 Chevy Celebrity. Yep, I'm getting old. First Car Owned - '86 Cutlass Supreme Brougham w/a 350 |
