eTiMaGo · 05-19-2007, 01:01 PM

same, 190km/h which is 118MPH... car may have been able to go faster but ran out of breath...

Pavel Olavich · 05-19-2007, 07:47 PM

150 mph

MrJester · 05-19-2007, 08:27 PM

112mph so far

BailOut · 05-19-2007, 08:45 PM

I got all the way up to 65 MPH on the way back from Vegas, at the wife's insistence. I normally never go faster than 55 MPH but her freshly-operated-on leg was hurting.

It cruises quite nicely at 94mph.

Anthony · 05-20-2007, 10:37 AM

117 mph

gm830 · 05-20-2007, 06:27 PM

Slummy · 05-20-2007, 07:28 PM

i've had mine up to 100 once or twice, but no faster.

Look at my avatar,pretty much nuff said,but I have seen 118mph,It actually cuts at 115mph,but you can get higher just from the momentum from going from 80-115 or a hill.

One warning... but that was in my olds.

Think the cops around here can't believe that little thing is going that fast! (knock on wood, now I'll really have to keep it down on the way to work tomorrow!)

shut up Pavel, we all damn well know our car has a governer at 117 or 118 not 100% sure on the exact speed, but it is well under 150 mph

I wrapped the needle... twice! I was being pushed by a Veyron. Down hill with a tail wind.

Sabretooth · 05-21-2007, 08:27 AM

Gotten mine to 115, Loved every moment of it, didnt think it could go any more, and it still had some push.

I agree that the car cruises really nice at about 95mph, little unstable any higher.

*Astroman* · 05-21-2007, 11:07 AM

G/F got it up to 130mph once (downhill of course) but have hit the limiter at least a dozen times. I do a lot of freeway driving over a long distance. I have 17" wheels, tanabe strut tower bar, and megan racing mid and rear support bars, and even doing over 100mph uphill on curves it was solid. Can't wait to see how it handles with the spring and strut upgrades.
