Mine doesn't look aggressive but acts like it with me behind the wheel.

I guess "aggressive" means 18 and 20 inch wheels.

I think the Poles take the cake. How about a C3 with Turbo LT1 (2nd gen SBC) and GMC Typhoon AWD.

From article: 0-100 kph (0-62 mph) in 1.4 seconds, 0-200 kph (0-124 mph) in 4.4 seconds, 0-300 kph (0-186 mph) in 8.3 seconds, and a quarter-mile best of 7.79 seconds.

I don't know who's car this is, but it is beautiful looking car. One of my favorites on this board - just well done. And I usually hate the painted LT1 hood look.
