120 in a Subaru forester could probably hit 140-145 but I believe the governor stops it at close to 130 as for the TL the fastest I have been personally driving the car is 115 as cops tend to scare me now even with my radar.

Being a passenger of my friends modded early 90's GTA T/A.

I remember being on the highway screaming passing cars in the e lane pinging sand off the cars we were going by. (3-5) at a wack.
150 Speedo was burried easy.

I would say I've been atleast 160
It probablly was not the smartest thing,we were on lunch break ,mid day.
That's when I was young.
Now (my car) rarely see's 90 +

On an empty stretch of highway with the closest person about 5 miles away, even though it's still not safe, but i topped out my TL-S. It was near 150mph.

The highest I have touched is 120 mph on my '00 TL. It was on the highway from Salt lake city -> Reno (I -80).

I loved the ride, the car was so stable, silent.. ooh!
