Back in the day, my fastest was about 100 MPH in a Corolla that lasted until I flipped my car and it rollled over twice doing a 720 degree. It took forever to get to 100 MPH and the car blew 2 tires and I lost control. The car stopped rolling and ended on it's roof. I had to crawl out of the window to exit the car.
I was lucky I didn't kill anyone or get myself killed. It proves how safe Toyota's are!
Folks, let's not encourage speed on the street and save it for the tracks
Fastest in my IS250 was 84 MPH... but I don't go anymore above that. I'm afraid of tickets and police impounding my car. I got the speeding out of my system, so I'm happy with my IS250... it's still world's faster than my corolla and civic.

Fastest I've ever gone was 120 in my tC. It's stupid scary at that speed. I backed off because it was too dangerous.
Fastest I've ever gone in my 250? I've never seen my speedometer turn red. I'm usually under 80MPH though. I'm over the speed addiction. What I do love still is passing power. All TORQUE baby!!

145 mph on an empty freeway at 4am against a 335i, Porsche GT2, and a C63- needless to say I got my *** whooped. It was exhilarating for the first 15 seconds then I realized how stupid it was, car could've simply sheared in half if I struck something for some reason.
Commuting between Santa Cruz and San Francisco I usually average 75-80 mph.

In my IS350 145mph
155mph On the back of a GSX1000 doing a two-up ride with Jason Primore at Pahrump, NV Spring Valley race track.(My Dad used to teach at his school so JP rode like i wasn't even on the back.) I after he dropped the front wheel coming out of the turn heading down the straight I glanced at the speedO it read 115, then the wind got crazy so I just tuck in behind him, He later goes dude we got up to 155. That's the quickest I have gone with anyone on the back.
175+ plus in a Z06 out at Fontana, Speedway. As we crossed the finish line i glanced over the needle was around 175. Damn 175 in a Z06 is nothing didn't feel like it at all. Not that I have ever gone that fast before I guess I just thought it would be more noisy??

The fastest I've gone in my IS350 was somewhere between 130 and 140 on my way home from the dealership right after buying the car. I think I've only seen the red ring on my speedometer like 2 times since then... but I get up to speed quickly
