I would say over 500hp on the street can be a handfull from time to time.

Anything with regular radials that has over 300 hp is USELESS on the street unless you put some decent sticky tires on it.

With that being said, Over 450 is a lot to me.

depends on the car. A heavy car eats alot. I think 400 is about where drivability starts going away quickly. (>3000 lb cars especially)

I think 350 and up is fun on the road. But not this much fun

i don't see much loss of drivability in my car. i drove my mustang to work yesterday (damn i love that little bitch!) and would do it every day of the week if gas wasn't so stupid. 700 rwtq can be a little more fun than you asked for, but knowing how to throttle her goes a long way in making sure she stays straight. :]
