Article-I.D.: ixn5h.126 Posted: Tue Feb 22 08:09:14 1983 Received: Wed Feb 23 01:49:27 1983 Reply-To: dcn@ixn5h.UUCP (Dave Newkirk) Is the Porsche 928S the "most powerful" car in the US? If "power" = horsepower, then the answer is no: Lamborghini Countach S 325 hp Aston Martin Lagonda 325 Aston Martin Vantage 300 Maserati Quattroporte 288 Jaguar XJ-S 262 All Rolls Royce 260 Porsche 928S 234 It's true that some of these cars are hard to find in your average dealer's showroom, but they are legally obtainable. As far as top speed goes, the Porsche is near the top of the list, but the Countach (and maybe a couple of other cars, such as the Ferrari 512 Boxer absent from my list) are a little faster. If you were to ask, "What is the best sports car in the world?", the answer would most likely be the 928! Dave Newkirk ixn5h!dcn P.S. All horsepower figures from Road & Track.
