Performance Handling

How many of you guys have tested the upper top speed limits of your 05-06 RL? I was driving from Vegas to Los Angeles and noticed that the car was controllable but the steering got a little sensitive. The suspension also seemed to travel more. I'm sure it was the triple digit temperature but I also notice the acceleration was slower than normal. What's everyone else opinion and experience.

thanks,

Robert

I've taken my RL up to about 105 mph and I agree that the steering feels a little light at that speed. I wish Honda had made the steering more "speed sensitive" so it would tighten up at higher speeds. However, the car seemed to capable of maintaining that speed effortlessly.
