BMW Z3 3.2L = 320BHP
Vauxhall Frontera = 175BHP

BMW 316i Compact = 120BHP
Chevrolet Blazer = probably 200BHP

Chevrolet Corvette Sintgray 350 (69) = 400 last I checked with my step dad
Toyota Supra RZ (97) = Got it running at 350

Anyways, those are rough guesses of cars from my dad (first two) and mum/step dad (second two). 5th is joint owned by my step dad and I, 6th is mine.

So total (not taht it's accurate) - 1,565

A little more powerful then the DiesalMax vehicle they're using to break the world land speed record for a diesal powered vehicle
 
Lets see....


Grandfather: Suzuki Sidekick- I'll guess at 100
Mom: Chevy Astro conversion van- I'd guess 200 (4.3L V6)
Dad: Grand Marquis- 240

540... I'l add a lawnmower, 3 weed eaters and an edger for 550- a Ford GT
 
Here we go...

'70 Chevrolet El Camino-~450hp with nitrous

'55 Chevrolet two door wagon(150) ~500 (427 cu.in)

'99 Chevrolet Camaro Z28-309hp

'00 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP- 240 hp

So thats about 1499hp, not too shabby. The neighbors hate us though.:sly:
 
You will laugh at me, but I don't care....
Only one car, a VW Beetle '61 with a 1500 engine, so that's like 40 hp, but I live in Bogota (2600m) that means that the engine loses 26% of it's power.
So, the power of my family is 29.6 hp
 
...which is roughly equal to driving this on a daily basis...

I didn't realise you lose that much power so high up!
 
1996 Impala SS: 260hp(if it was stock, not sure how much it actually has now, but 300+)

1999 Honda Civic DX: 106hp
1987 Dodge Dakota: 125hp
2001 Toyota Echo: 108hp
1984 Ford Bronco II: 88hp
Some Harley Davidson: Who cares
*EDIT* Forgot the 4 door 1989 Mercury Topaz: again, who cares.

Total: 912hp not counting the harley.

My neighbours hate me since that's all parked out front of my house.
 
Volvo S80 T6 - 272
Volvo V70 2.5 TDI - 140
Ford SportKa 1.6 - 90
Saab 900 SE 2.0 - 185 (brother)
Landrover Discovery TdV6 - 190 (sister)
Mercedes Vito 112 CDI - 122

And my dad has another car that is 343-hp.

You're officially the new winner of the "lowest powered car" award :D
 
1968 Volkswagen Type 1 (Beetle): 53 hp
1990 Toyota Supra Turbo: 232 hp
1993 Saturn SL: 85 hp
1995 Honda Accord: 145 hp
1997 Mercury Villager: 151 hp

Total: 666 hp :trouble:

(in reality, though, the Beetle is in fine working order but it's on blocks and hasn't been driven in a year, the Supra is not running at the moment, and my dad has at least one extra Volkswagen engine lying around that isn't in anything)

Get it now! Some on here are having a laugh. What is it about speed and bragging rights. I've done 140mph on the M4 in my scooby. Difference is I don't need to brag about it!
Happy and safe motoring.

Hmm...

05 Outback 2.5XT - 250 HP
92 SVX - 230 HP
88 Sentra - 90 HP?
99 Corolla - 125 HP
04 Accord 4cyl - 160 HP
87 MR2 with 20V 4A - 190 HP
87 MR2 stock - 125 HP

Total - 1170 HP

More than I thought we had at first... too lazy to look at the older Honda motorbikes...
 
Its likely gonna be sold soon... getting up there in the miles, 130k, and its my brother's, along with the Sentra. The Outback is my dad's, Accord is my mom's, and all the Toyota's are mine.

The SVX is cool... but the tranny is junk and needs to be swaped for the manual to be a performance car I feel.

140mph down the motorway isn't safe at all...
