That sounds like "livable drag car", not ultimate street car
An ultimate street car probably has 4 doors, at least.
I drove a 2001 Audi S8 last weekend. Except for the automatic transmission, that thing is probably pretty close. It's big advantage over an M5 would be AWD, which is quite helpful in this part of the country.

I'll see your 911 Turbo and raise you with a GT3-RS.
But that is def. a badass T/A. IMO, a good street car would be something like a modded 03-04 Cobra, Corvette, Evo/STi, etc.
Vehicles already in the upper echelon that pull something better than a 13.9 off the showroom floor, and can hit low 12's high 11's with minimal work.

Wow, you really are a fucking know-it-all. I would venture to say that you are more of a know-it-all than 2wheeler.Considering I find 2wheeler to be a fairly intelligent individual, thank you. I would love to sit here and one up you, but in the end, I represent a business on this forum and even if I could make you look like a complete moron, what did I win?

HA that is not a "livable drag car", he drives that thing pretty much every day. You see, for the 75% of people that live in this country, you can drive these things all winter. I drove my Buick around in the snow on the drag radials quite a few times. Otherwise i would change tires, and yes i did drive it for a whole winter when it was my only car. Also i drove my GTO in the snow alot, about 3 months when i felt like it. This isnt "its your only car for life" obviously if your gonna put that kind of time and money into something your not gonna drive it behind a salt truck. christ i thought that would be obviousI apologize, I haven't drived a high horsepower rwd car in the winter. I thought awd w/snows was the best of the best, but apparently a '<u>perfect</u> street car' lies in a rwd platform........:icon_scratch: I didn't say you couldn't drive the car, but in my opinion, if you had THAT car you posted and drove it in the winter, I think it would struggle (hence the "I'd love to see that thing in winter"). Sure it would get places, but not safely....that's all I was saying. I wasn't trying to attack your thread making skillz or your manhood status on the internet.
Please continue with your thread kind sir, and I apologize for going off topic to address something I should have laughed off.
