Have you ever wondered what the fastest and slowest street-legal cars ever produced were? Wonder no more.
The absolute doggiest dog ever foisted on college students was the 1968 Fiat 850 Idromatic. See photo above. It even LOOKS sad, doesn't it? It seems to be saying, "Please shoot me. Please don't humiliate me anymore by drag-racing me with VW Beetles." No?
Here are the poor Idromatic's pathetic stats:
1. Quarter Mile in 23.0 seconds. 0-60 MPH (0-97 KPH) = 25.4 seconds
Following is the entire "top" 10 list for the slowest cars of all time:
- 68 Fiat 850 Idromatic 0-60 mph 25.4 Quarter mile 23.0
- 73 VW Super Beetle Convertible 0-60 mph 23.7 Quarter mile 22.2
- 74 Datsun B210 Coupe 0-60 mph 22.5 Quarter mile 24.5
- 79 Volkswagen Rabbit (Diesel) 0-60 mph 21.2 Quarter mile 21.9
- 81 Cadillac Seville (Diesel) 0-60 mph 20.9
- 80 Audi 5000S Diesel 0-60 mph 20.3 Quarter mile 21.6
- 81 Audi 5000S Diesel 0-60 mph 20.4
- 68 Fiat 850 Spider 0-60 mph 19.9 Quarter mile 21.4
- 64 Austin-Healey 3000 MK II 0-60 mph 19.8
- 72 Fiat Wagon 0-60 mph 19.0 Quarter mile 21.2
