Mine s2000 has marked 271 km/h (169 mph) in wake to Ferrari 360 Modena. I was to 8.500 rpm.. I have surpassed an AUDI S6 new model that went sure to the maximum speed... more than 255 km/h (160 mp/h) effective has arrived..... I think......

cool, finally an italian member!!
WELCOME!
come va?
where are you from in italy?

speed :
Swiss2k's record of 274kmh on a german highway still has to be beaten, but many european owners have reached speeds around 260kmh (160mph).
I hate to say it, but DO A SEARCH

I've gotten 161 twice, but there's nothing left...it won't budge off of it, the second time I did it a car passed me going the other direction and I lost 6mph from the wind.

I have gone 155 (indicated) forward and 48 (indicated) in reverse. Going backwards was more fun. Nothing like neck snap forward when V-TEC hits!!

Finnally a GPS reading for Max speed.

I trust this much better than a speedometer. These things are made to read at airspeeds over 300 mph so they are definitely more accurate.

Any more?

BTW someone can borrow my GPS to attempt this, not the car though That is BYOC
