how about the slowest?

Here's the highest hp cars I've driven:
1. BMW M3 - 333hp
2. Pontiac Firebird Firehawk -320hp
3. Mitsu 3000GT VR4 - 280-300hp?
4. Chevy Camero IROC - 275hp
5. Pontiac Bonneville SSEi - 240hp

Although those cars were fun, the rides weren't that memorable. You know why? Because the 0-60 run was over too quick. Not enough time to enjoy it. On the other hand, I remember every infuriatingly slow car I've very driven. Some are even the cause of reoccurring night terrors. To my everlasting shame, I even owned one of these cars. I'm not proud. I will immortalize them now, counting down to the least hp car I've ever driven:

5. '89 Chevy Tracker 4WD - 80hp, hard top model with auto trans. 0-60 in 13sec (with a good tail wind).
4. '90 Honda Civic base model -- 70hp. thankfully it has a stick shift. 0-60 in 0-60 in 'Are we there yet?'
3. '82 Chevy Chevette - 68 furious hp, auto trans, no power steering or brakes (or windows, locks, etc). 0-60 in 'Did that tractor just pass us?'
2. '81 Chevy Citation - 67 rip-snortin' hp, auto trans, same engine (I think) as the Chevette, but in a heavier car. Oh, the humanity! 0-60 in 'Are we moving or is that just my life passing me by?'
1. '85 Hyundai Pony (found only in the wide open fields of Canada) - estimated 55 glorious hp, auto trans. It had a manual choke for Pete's sake. 0-60 in 3.5 days.

I've never had the misfortune of driving the 3-cylinder Geo Metro or any of the under powered cars found in Europe and Asia, but I'm betting the Pony would give them a run for their money (so to speak).

Cheers,
Matt

ok just got back from work need to add another

98? mercedes benz sl 600 AMG V12 roadster convertible

Isnt it amazing that people will trust a 120,000 car with a 20 year old kid, it was such a tease I took the car to seventy and it felt like it was sleeping waiting to wake up at 140 or something . I felt like a god for the 15 mins I was in that car! Not to mention the looks from the girls, had to hide the boston valet shirt in the backseat
