Yes. Many perfectly legal and safe cars have a greater horse power than 250.
no car can do 0-100 in 1 second.
The maximum speed of the Buick Riviera sedan automatic 8cyl 250hp is 115 mph.
The maximum speed of the 1964 Ford Thunderbird coupe automatic 8cyl 250hp is 90 mph.

250hp 500lb./ft.
250hp
with a 360 about 250hp
Horsepower ranges from 230HP-250HP.
As safe as any other color for a car. It is the driver, not the car that determines how safe it is. Red cars do get more tickets.
Assuming you are talking about a road car, 250hp can take you to approximately 130-160mph. This is heavily dependant on the gearing of the car, the aerodynamics, the rolling resistance among other factors. If you want the theoretical top speed that a streamliner with "skinny" wheels, and an unlimited amount of space to reach top speed you have to take into account all the factors above and add in all the minute ones like air temperature and density. Though according to Newtons 1st Law....there is no top speed!
in a f/s truck it is 250hp factory.
