Past 100 it gets very loud and scary. The only time I've done it, I was thinking: if I get in an accident doing 100+ in a 2002 my wife will kill me!... 90 is ok, 100 is ok, but pass that, is pure madness, insanity, stupidity. Yes, 125, and I have never even taken my Cayman that fast, and not planning on it either. I guess it is in your bucket list, you have to do it at least once.

Me and my best friend were heading into Seattle and hit what we think was 105 in my 100% stock car at the time. Were not sure exactly how fast we were going because my speedo is off...

I win.

For now at least.

(And yes it's running hot which has been fixed, it's not in mph, it's a 5-speed with a 4.11 and it's more like 205 on a gps)

Funny thing is, when you get over 190ish, the door windows get sucked open a bit.

It's loud as hell at those speeds anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

...she wouldn't have to...

Saw 110 racing a spriget under the convention center on the express lanes.

Sounded great. The snow tires weren't happy about it, though.
