    I feel your pain, depending on the car 400-450hp is about right for a daily...for me anyway.

    My buddies Procharged Z06 makes 590whp and its about perfect for a daily, theres not much you are going to run into thats going to hang with that.

    Its a blast but h\c\i will net you the same power. The procharged cars tend to overheat when pushed hard. His was so bad at little tally I couldn't even run a full lap without it over heating, unless I ran it in 4th gear. Mind you in 4th gear on street tires it ran sub 1:10s.

    A HCI car with good tires and pads should be sub 1:03 which is damn near insane.

    Get an AMG. You can get them for dirt cheap and pick up an extended warranty from Chrysler for a pretty reasonable amount.

    Cts-v, porsche panamera, bmw 760, range rover supercharged, rolls royce phantom drophead, if you have money you can get a nice luxury car that hauls ass.......don't act like money can't buy you what you're looking for.

    And if you don't have enough $$$$ to buy these cars then wtf are you bitching about. Man up and get money.

    I'd suggest finding less on ramps and more turns. I'd say the majority of the most addicting cars to drive every day, even with mods are well under 500whp and would never get old
