This furious 1,318 PS Honda Civic belongs in the 7-second quarter-mile club.
This acceleration model is traditionally dominated by two drive types - rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. So it's especially fun to see this 30-year-old FWD Honda Civic beating supercars out in the field.
The owner of this particular Civic occasionally attends street races, but the impoundment of his car forced him to reconsider the scope of his involvement. He decided to up the ante and attend official events instead.
To do this he purchased a large precision turbocharged , a huge front intercooler and dogbox gearbox. The stock 2.2-liter K-series engine comes with a host of components suitable for racing . After modification, the output of the front wheels reaches 1115PS (1100 hp/820kW) in street mode and 1318PS (1300hp/969kW) in track mode. The result was a lap of the quarter mile in 7.94 seconds, reaching 298 km/h (185 mph) in the process, the world's top speed for a car using a Honda K-series engine.
