How Fast is Fast?
I hope this poll doesn't get seen by a bunch of auto insurance underwriters!
You go faster at your own risk even here.
You wreck yourself or your car while doing 200mph - even if it is not explicitly forbidden by law - your insurance won't pay a single cent.
My Ferrari dealer showed me some impressive photos of a completely wrecked F40 - the guy had to brake for someone who changed lanes on the Autobahn and didn't see him approaching at 160mph. No one was killed or maimed.
He didn't get anything from the insurance company.
He drives a silver 550 Maranello now

Overtime I have slowly gotten up the nerve to go a little faster on "safe" roads.
First 110
Then 120
Finally 130
Then I went out a few nights ago, and the woman I had taken out flat out asked
"just what will this car do"
Told her to get in the car, put on her seatbelt, and to hold on.
Went out to a great 6 mile straight stretch, a great place to test the car

VTEC
She was pretty calm up until about 125, I looked over and told her to tell me when to stop, as I'm not going to try and really scare someone)
Finally at 141 mph -
I believed we both had enough, and slowed it back down.
Pure THRILL -
It kept both of us pretty worked up for a while, and later that evening

Also keep the car parked in well lit, secured areas (the more thefts of this car the more the car's rate are affected for your comprehensive and collision rates - the same rating number is used for both coverages). This car has a very reasonable rate right now.
