I've update post #10 with updated numbers. I'd like to keep the list growing if you guys can suggest cars to put in. I've been getting most of the numbers from sites like motortrend or insideline. Appreciate it!

Hyundai Genesis 5.3 sec 149mph
Mustang GT 5.1 sec 155mph
Audi S4/S5 4.9 sec 155mph
Nissan 370z 4.8 sec 155mph
BMW M3 4.7 sec 155mph
Lexus ISF 4.4 sec 168mph
C63 AMG 4.3 sec 155mph
Mustang GT Boss 4.2 sec 155mph
Chevy Corvette 4.2 sec 175mph
Cadillac CTS-V 3.9 sec 175mph
Dodge Viper 3.5 sec 200mph
Audi R8 3.4 sec 199mph
Porsche Panamera Turbo 3.3 sec 188mph
Porsche 911 Turbo 2.9 sec 194mph
Nissan GTR 2.9 sec 196mph

As far as the E93 m3, I don't think it is faster. And there really are not that many faster cars out there. I'd rather have an ISF than a CTS-V anyday. However, a GTR would be nice to have.
Correction mustang gt ...4.5 seconds

That's what I thought as well. But I believe it was motortrend who tested it and could only get 5.1

Looking at the cars that I currently have on the list, the only three that I actually respect are the Audi R8 and Nissan GTR, and of course the Corvette. The others are junk in my opinion (ive owned several American cars and will never go back). Only reason Corvette gets my respect is that its a classic.

I wonder though: The M3 usually gets the best 0-60 by using the launch sequence which is rather complex from what I understand. So is the F launched using just sport mode with the traction control disabled? I know when I tried this with my son riding shotgun with a stopwatch I lit up the rears and did it in 4.3 seconds. I think with stickier tires it would do it in a tenth or two faster. I know that this is rather crude but both of us were watching the speedo so I figure it was pretty close. By the way, this was done on a freeway onramp that is timed with a green/red light for freeway entry. And yes I shut it down as soon as we reached 60.

Really? Porsche 911 Turbo is junk? I have great respect for the 911 and panamera.
Not to mention I think that anyone would be proud to own 95% of the cars on that list!

http://www.roadandtrack.com/tests/co...us_is_f_page_5

Road and Track gives the following performance information for a stock ISF:

0 to 60 = 4.2 seconds
0 to 100 = 9.9 seconds
1/4 mile = 12.6 seconds @ 113.8 MPH

Porsche's might perform well but are ugly.
