Default Ls 460

Good morning. My car is a Lexus ls460 model 2008 and I love the speed, but the car is limited to 210 km speed and I wish I can reach the maximum speed.

The computer controls everything. There's no "chip" on the aftermarket for this that actually works.

210 kph equates to 130 mph.

Yes, that's quite fast for a heavy luxury car. The suspension and brakes aren't adequate for higher speeds. Porsche, BMW, etc are actually built for higher top speeds, but you lose the luxury ride.

Not the car I would want to exceed that speed in.
swfla is exactly right.

Especially G.C.C. variant we're probably talking about right here (1UR-FE???).
210kmh is exactly the speed my ***** give up and I start decelerating haha. EU does not have this limit BTW.
