Top Speed: 175 mph

Pretty impressive for 1994.

I agree. I'm not doubting the performance of that car, but those lines were going by REALLY fast for the slowest speed that the cop car was going. 121 km/h=75 MPH. I drive every day around 80 MPH and those line don't go by THAT fast. I think the video has been increased in speed by a few frames per second, but nothing major.

That Lotus is just RIDICULOUSLY fast though...

 

Lets not forget that the European Police cars are not as fast as the one's State side...
