Best would be an Aston Martin V8 vantage....although certainly not the fastest.

most impressive was an EVO 5 RS.

People have moved in and then complained about the noise of shipbuilding........ dont start me!!!!!!
My mother was gazumped trying to buy the penthouse overlooking the Waverleys original berth on the Broomielaw (near the roundabout at the entrance to the SECC with the underground carparking etc) and they were constructed to a very high standard.
I hadn't heard of the troubles with the new blocks further up the water.
LOL @ complaining at the noise from the shipbuilding...priceless
Reminds me of the dorks near Donington complaining about trackdays plus if they were concerned about peace and quiet why buy a pad near an airport?
What really takes the biscuit though is the pencilnecked cocksnoggers from the council with their noise meters waiting for the planes to pass before checking the trackscars DB level
