No way you will goto a FEDERAL PRISON for speeding.

I've hit 125 with ease, i'm sure the 250 can hit 140mph with no problem.
I've hit 135 and I knew I could've hit 140...but then I backed out...

btw...anyone who lives in the sugar land/houston area...if you want to hit high speeds...go to grand parkway from new territory going towards katy....its fun.

I wouldn't have time to post anything else, if I were to point out everyone's mistakes on here! But, like you, I'm shocked that educated (I presume) people cannot properly compose a sentence, or spell correctly. (By the way, it's "grammar".)

LMAO. got em
i don't really think that grammar really matter. what matters here and whats most important is that we have 'park assist'.

so remember. whenever your upset. just tell yourself

Gotta chime in on this topic as i just drove to vegas from l.a. and after reading this post, i HAD to see what FAST would feel like. I got up to 120 on a long straightaway and it felt CRAZY! it felt like at about 115 it got really quiet and smooth, it kind of scared me a little! hell, i've gone 105 in my old '91 ford escort, and i worked my way up to the 120 in the 350. but i swear, the difference in 105 to 120 was really pretty huge to me. when that EVIL red glow at 100mph comes on, you just have to grin!!!

I don't care about the title because I understand what you're asking.

But fyi, it is driven.

This one time, a Lambo tried to race me. Worst mistake of his life.
I slammed on the gas but it wasn't enough. I flipped my nos switch and all of a sudden, wings came outta my car and I started flying.
/sarcasm

Seriously though, highest I've ever gone was 120. Felt so slow after coming back down to 90 lol!
