The fastest I've gotten my car was 125. My brother took my car out and he said it wouldn't go faster than 125. (Side Note: I was playing golf and rode with my dad and my girlfriend gave him permission to take it out. I'm still mad at her about that)

Am I just missing something? Are US models set with a limit? I read that thread where people have gone around 150MPH.

 

There is no way that is the fastest it would go.

 

Your "lightningchicken" brother chickened out before it could reach the max

 

I had mine up to 140 and stopped (traffic)...I heard 156 from one guy and another reported 160's

 

I rarely get the chance to floor it and try to beat that 125 since around here there isn't a place to do this (safely and without police). Maybe I haven't given it a chance to go above the 125 mark.

 

I chickened out too. That's crazy fast, but damn that's stable at that speed.

I've gotten mine up to 140 with the top down, and I had just shifted into 6th gear..... it was very stable too....

 

check out the reverends garage...he has a cool page the shows you the machine limits of each gear in the s2000...discounting wind.

btw...i had mine to 147

Maybe he doesn't know it's a six speed.
