**cough**110 on the clock of my own car**cough**-probably more like 100!

165 in a 355 on a track

180 in a racing prosche in the track

170 (on the clock-so more like 160ish) in mt dad's Saab Aero, which has been tuned by Hirsch before people tell me that the top speed of a 9-5 Aero is about 150mph

Humm, one day i will own a fast car lol

Dude, hit the highway!

I got 120 mph and that's as fast as my BM goes (1.8i). But I kick your asses in the corners HEHE

165 mph in a 355 still takes some bottle no matter where it is....and especially if you havent been driving them for long....

Holly Molly 155 in a 968? Do they even go that fast? What you got under the hood?

yes they do go that fast.......had my engine re-done recently so it is perhaps producing a bit more than power than the stock 235hp. also have k & n air filter and racing chip

jabba: no matter what the outcome, always blame it on the damn traffic ........

In my own car, about 110mph. That was plenty fast in that piece of crap. Shook and vibrated, I thought it was gonna explode! Well, it kind of did, but it was intentional.

Fastest ever, was 160mph in a 911 turbo.

I'm driving a K-car, so the fastest I've been was 140km/h. That's 87mph. Hahhaa.... hurts me when I saw the fuel gauge dropped a bit.

Damn, you guys are fast. Be very careful on the road, okay?
