Most expensive car you've been in?

Probably my mates Evo.
He has spent a fair whack on it. see pics here!

Its got a spec list as long as your arm, and the one on the site aint up to date, I think its running about 750 bhp at the moment, but thats track power, if he drags it he has a less useable 850 bhp map. There should be some pics of me in the gallery! lol

If were talking stock cars, driven - Evo FQ400, focus RS Impreza STI, Not bad for a 20 YO, If were talking sat on/in probably Karl harriss's HM PLant superbike at oulton this year, I imagine thats worth a fair whack (I have friends and had hospitality pass)
 
Most expensive car i have been a passenger while moving is probably my dads 70k~ 911 4S.

Most expensive car i have sat in was probably some Rolce Royce or Ferrari.
 
Been in a mates Porsche Carrera, couldn't tell you what model - was quite a while ago now.

It burned a little oil on startup but it was a nice ride, 'tis a strange feeling having an engine in the back :)
 
Mine was probably Tony Ponds Group B Metro 6R4 that I had the pleasure of being driven around a track in.
It was frighteningly fast but the owner couldn't put a price on it as it was such a unique car.

The carbon fibre doors are quite rare, found a manufacturer in the US and they just happened to have a UK dealer thank god. The other stuff comes from street-racers because carbon costs a bomb, and also a few things off of ebay internationally.

True but if it ain't broke................. :p :D

Lets face it, rocker covers are just for show and this really isn't what this car is about. This project has been ticking on at least a couple of years now and he's only just decided to whack decals on it. No doubt if he finds one that weighs less he'll have it, apparently he's trying to get as many titanium parts for it as possible as he doesn't want to chop the bodyshell up like Norris did with theirs (shortened wheelbase with lightened bodyshell running a stroker kit) .
He's aiming for it to be the fastest evo in UK/Europe with a stock bodyshell and an unbored/unstroked 2.0 litre capacity.

No chance for the world as the moment I think as AMS's evo is pretty much unstoppable in the states and i think Jim's has a few AMS parts in his

Speaking of Norris, my boss is having some work done by the man himself to his Evo 9 GT - turbo back exhaust, induction/intake and re-map - should be up around 370 bhp :D
 
The R/c developments guys have been very successfull with their Evo's. They have a really good setup there in warrington and offer tuning packages on a few cars, some very impressive work! 930Bhp 673lb/ft thats got a stroker kit though, still quite impressive. 10.25 second standing 1/4.
