Take a close look at the original picture:

5200 rpms, in fourth gear.

Hmmm. What's up with that?

LOL. no seat belt? I guess the seat belt would rip you in half at that speed (as my freinds always say) :killer:

I've read a couple people in this thread saying that they've gotten their 99 TL's up to the 140-150 range. Let me point out that this is pure bs, there's no way my 99 tops out at 130 and take FOREVER to get that fast. It's also a 4 speed and the gear ratios are not set to the specs where the car can reach 150 no f-ing way.

I love it, a person who doesn't let photographic evidence stand in the way of their opinion.

I also zoomed in on the picture...the back door is not open.

The fastest I've gone was 147 when the governor kicked in and killed the fun.

After coming back down to 80, I felt like I could jump outside and run faster. The car felt absolutely planted at 147. I'm going to try it again soon once my new wheels and tires come in. I've upgraded my suspension since the last top speed run, so I'm hoping that it'll be even better this time around. I'll make sure to take a picture, as well.

P.S. Does the '99 TL not have a governor or something? Mine kicked in at 147 exactly.
