I've personally only pushed it to 120 or so, but when I see the tach reading a bit over 2k RPM, see the redline around 7k, and see the speedo saying 80 MPH, I can not HELP but wonder how fast this thing can go

I now drive an accord....
Ive been close to 140 on an open road also and it scared the crap out of me
The car felt ok at that speed but the risk of a life changing ticket and death stop me from doing this again.

I've gone 143 in 4th through Nevada. I want to do at least 150 just to say I've done 150. When I did the 143 I had stock everything. Now I have the CT drop and 40 series tires. I want to see the difference in handling.
At about 140 the winds start flapping in and out. Have others experienced this?

I have a "friend" who has sone 140 in his previous AT cls. He wouldn't ever do it again. I also have another "friend" who has a 6MT and has taken it up to 135 with the similar mods on my sig....and it felt ok.
what do you mean flapping in and out?

Where is my super sauce?
I thought someone did the math long ago, using calculations with the coefficient of drag and horsepower, and effectively got a maximum speed of within 10 MPH of the governed speed.

I have a stock 2003 cls6 that I took only to 142...
and the other day went to 135 with my winter tires...
when i had a 2001 cls, I took it once to 245km/h... which is 152 and never felt the limiter... maybe my speedo was a little off and I was just about to hit it.
and yes, at about 135 the windows flap a little but beside that it's very stable and not scary at all.
