257 kmh (about 160 mph) on the German Autobahn, last August.
Yes, there are still parts on the Autobahn where that speed is legal, there is just an "advice" to go no faster then 82 mph. (130 kmh)

It does get very noisy at that speed.
But it never felt uncomfortable or unsafe to drive.
It was just very exciting.

The mpg went down to about 19 for the 120 miles of Autobahn, keeping the revs up.

I think I will try it again this summer, or sooner.

150 in 5th with the top down. Damn its windy at 150mph and hearing the radio is impossible. I often set the cruise at 110 on weekend trips to the beach. 150 is what she toped out at cause I shifted to 6th with no more speed. I haven't tried to see how fast I can go with the top up, yet.

i hit 138 in my s2000 just to see what it couls do, but roads in alaska arent straight enough to do much more. They have lots of curves.
