I hold it right now at 129.9mph. Hoping to break it with a 140+. Can't go above 145 though otherwise they won't count it and I will get put into probation status for excessive speed. You are allowed +-10mph and I am rated for 135 currently.

well, here is proof in the pudding that the Yaris can move. I had actually been going faster and still slowly climbing, but was struck by a cross wind about 50ft from the marker which slowed me down some:

Just a thought....
I guess it is all relative, but in my case, I have gone faster in my Yaris than I did in my 1977 Pontiac Trans Am.

An indicated 96 mile/hour in a 1.4 Diesel 2010 Yaris. The speedometer read higher than that indicated by sat-nav, so probably just over 90 mile/hour. That was on a dual carriageway road and around 2am, virtually no other traffic, no cameras and definitely no police! ( limit on that particular road 70 mph)

Question on the calibration is whether or not the car has aftermarket wheel/tire combo and what brand tires and size?
