Torquiest car you've ever driven?

What's the torquiest car you've ever driven? I would have to say the 335i for me.

My '69 427 Corvette. Built engine with 433 cubic inches, 12.5-1 compression, L88 cam and custom Holley 929cfm. Made 635 ft. lbs of torque!
When you rolled onto the throttle, you had to counter steer right or the torque would turn the car left for you.

I guess my STi since it makes 400wtq, but it doesn't "feel" torquey since that comes at around 4000RPM on the dyno. My moms SRT8 Jeep is pretty torquey off the line.

Fastest car in general would be a Ferrari 550 Maranello.

I would say my old Evo Ix. Made about 380wtq@3k.

RWD would be my 335i. Totally different then driving a high torque AWD.

Ferrari F430 Spider. Never been in something that threw me back so much. I had the opportunity to drive an Audi R8 5.2 (v10) and while I dont remember it so much, that was also quite a car!

At 450, my dad's 750li has the most out of any car I've driven. If I ever chip tune my 335d, though, it'll take the cake with somewhere north of 500.

Haha, I'll admit off the line it was quite um...scary. I had to be very careful as it was not my car. The throttle feel was very similar to an SL55 AMG. Instant torque. I never did floor it nor try anything stupid, like launching it. It'd just sit there and spin the wheels for the next half-hour. But I did get to enjoy the way it passed cars on the freeway...my god.

Know one has said it so far.... so I will... VIPER SRT.

Not a big fan of them, but dam is it a torque monster. Within a few laps the brakes are on fire and the clutch is burning like mad... but .... it is dam fast and has a ton of torque!

My buddy who works in the insurance boz says it has THE highest total loss rate in teh first 90 days of ownership! ieL people who wrech and make it a total write off loss for the ins co. lol
