fastest production FWD car!!!

hey so i was randomly thinking bout anything faster than a stock CL-S with the Front Wheel Drive setup...and of course i mean a stock car that was mass produced. there has to be something quicker out of the showroom, but i cant think of it...

if theres nothing, it might be interesting to note that the CL-S is the fastest production FWD car! cuz we all know anything with more HP gets to be Rear Wheel Drive or AWD...


just a thought.

cant wait for this to be moved to another forum too.

ok there you go...man i couldnt think of anything! ok now i know we have the 2nd fastest FWD production car. lol. ok thanks...anybody got anything else?

and ill bring it up (somewhat related): i have a CL-P and with headers and intake, i have b/w 195HP and 200HP at the wheels. isnt that what the stock CL-S has? im curious if i've officially reached CL-S status...

i really could care less tho in the long run which is why i didnt make this into another thread...and also i ask no one try to add up $$$ and say i shoulda bought a CL-S from beginning b/c i promise you there were NO good low mileage ones at the time...but thanks for caring...

ok then i was wrong. i didnt know bout the mazdas but id argue the Cobalt and the SRT-4. the SRT-4 has "so much torque and lightwieght compared to ours!!!!!!!!!!!!!" wells thats the rumor. and in Car and Driver it might be faster, but in real life??

i know a guy who had one: good driver I PROMISE YOU!!! the guy could not connect the power b/c the damn thing was so light. lightweight and a lot of power does NOT!!!! = speed when it can't connect unlike our heavy cars.


but ok poiont taken...i was generally wrong. one thing we got that they dont: LUXURY!!

And if we aren't talking straight line performance but more about lap times the MazdaSpeed3 takes it hands down.

it might be worth it to compare manufacturer/models from the same model year, i.e. 2003 vs 2003 of each comparison. Comparing these new 07's vs. an 03 cls isn't really fair.

just imagine what a 2007 CL-S would bring to the table had it still been in production the last few years! I suspect 300hp+ along w/ AWD would be a fair guess.

drool, i need to stop daydreaming

Also, we can't move shit from the CL forum to the offtopic forum, so I'll have to close this... Feel free to repost you question over in the Car Talk forum...
