Wouldn't want to get a speeding ticket at those speeds. Probably also get charged with reckless driving, and loose your license.

still having problems getting my acura, damn insurance. anyways, had my 626 to 126 mph in the city on a street zoned for 35. talk about a rush

On a clear 3 lane stretch of I-10 when no cars were in the lanes next to me:


The car is pretty quick up to 115mph and then it crawls in 4th gear.

My 2000 has about 7000 kms on it, (4200 miles) Last weekend I hit 210 km/h which is 130 mph. The car still had lots of go and was climbing strong when I had to shut it down. Even bone stock I'm sure Ill see 145 mph Greg

I Got until 140 mph last time in I-95 in my way back from Providence. I was there with 3 of my friends, might be able to go to 150 with me alone ....

WOW i can't believe your tl can ran 130mph at 4500 rpm. do you have any aftermarket goodies on the car? it's great that a sedan can have such power!! if you take it to the redline, it can hit 150mph+!!

i've hit 220 kph which is about 135+ mph in my 97 .. with the speed still climbing slowly.. but i had to let go cuz my exit was coming up
it was on the 407 in toronto... clear driving at 2 AM

jkc2121

147.....then some jerk in a pickup truck decided it was a good idea to move into my lane. damn brakes haven't been the same ever since.

130 on the pulaski skyway in NJ.

URIRx98

I have hit 120 a couple of times in my cl-s. i had to lay off the sdpeed cause i always do it on my way back from los olas riverwalk at 3 am. its not the greatest time to do it when there are always druck drivers on the road. I am also still brakin my baby in, she only has 6000 miles on her. 150 is very easily in the near future.

I'm feeling sorta wimpy; The first time I had it on the open road (between Madison and Chicago) I got it up to just over 100 (with 3 passengers). It was shortly after passing a brand new M5... It felt like 65!

I can't wait for a better opportunity; I'm heading to the White Mountains for T-day, and I'm hoping for some empty highway on Thursday morning!

I can't believe TLBoston was going that fast on I-95. I hope the road was empty.

Guest

AC, yeah, it can go a lot faster if i had enough road, but i was on a small city street weaving in and out of people. if i could just get a good clean stretch of highway.

Well the hard part is looking through the viewfinder while you try to steady the camera with both hands and steer with your knees. You have to listen carefully so that whenever you hear the tires running over the reflectors you know to steer more to the other side.

I hope those were reflectors I was running over while I was taking the picture. Hehehe... Of course I'm just kidding... I already had the camera turned on and sitting in my lap... All I had to do was reach down for a split second aim at the dash, squeeze, and drop the camera back in my lap while I let off the gas and slowed back down to saner levels of speed. Believe it or not, if there isn't any wind, steering the car with one hand at 130mph isn't any more difficult than if you are driving 70mph. Its just scarey because in the back of your mind you are thinking, "If a dead cow falls out of the sky in front my car, I'm gonna be DEAD meat..." or "If one my tires blow out, I'm gonna be one long wet spot on the road!"

I also had my Eibach springs installed before I ever went faster than 125mph... the car feels "less than stable" at 120+mph speeds with the stock springs in the V6 Accord. I guess with a lower center of gravity the car feels more stable at higher speed since less air is traveling underneath the car.

i felt cool for going 126 or so, now you all are tellin me you've done like 140 and what not... is that true... cause R&T tested the car at what i beleive was 137* so have you really done that fast...
i've noticed though that at about 115 or so, the car slowly climbs up to higher speeds... but takes too long...
hey, anyone try and put the window down just a tad going that fast ? i did. it ****en whistles so damn loud
