A question... fastest commercial car..

cslgirl · 27-02-2009, 02:31 PM

Righto, some legal bod at work questioning me about the csl (asking if it had come out of the garage yet - cheeky !!) and then we got talking about the autobahns and top speed. He then mentioned that he read somewhere that he thought a suzuki rally car (one for the road) was the fastest 0-60 production car.

What car is he talking about? Is he talking out of his

My friends father has two 6R4's. The noise is apparently unreal, and one is over 500bhp

I remember the Pikes Peak from a computer game I had for the N64. Isnt it named after a mountain rally?
