In my IS my fastest = 140 something (everything was soo fast I didn't have time to examine the speedometer to see exactly how fast I was going).
It was night time and I was on my way to see my gf. I was having fun with some TL and we were getting some nice speeds all the way down the interstate. Usually takes me 30 minutes to get my gf's house, I think it took only 10-12 minutes that night. And yeah the roads were empty, I'm no idiot driver, not trying to kill myself or anyone else.

But back in the day when I had my GSX Eclipse I hit 155mph+ on the back roads in the county. And I had 3 girls in the car with me, what an idiot I was those days. All it would have taken was one deer to walk out on to the street....

supposely what i heard was that cops ain't suppose to chase anyone if they're going 100+ becouse ur putting cops in risks but thats here in a Florida I don't know in other states..........witch its funny becouse i thaught cops are suppose to proect civilians..........................but anyways i love speeding myself but in a responsible way at the track or very late at night when i know the roads are clear

I went 80 mph on my IS300. My husband went 110 on a small bridge in Florida. He also has his own IS300. It is so funny how we try to outbeat each other. His IS300 is metallic silver and my IS300 is Graphite Gray Pearl. We both have the same year car a 2005.

That's nothing to brag about... 18 or not, Your putting yourself, your mother, and others at risk.
