well, in kuwait it's not that hard to speed up, our highways are wide enough and if u take it in the morning, the high way will be empty so you can be safe to speed,
i made 308 km/h which equals = 191.4 Mph

May God protect you all from any harm, please be careful guys

My son borrowed my 97 and didn't realize the GPS kept a record of the top speed in the 'trip' info. I asked him why he was doing 99.8 mph and showed him the GPS record. He said, "That can't be right I was doing way over 100."
I didn't tell him I had it to 120.

I take mine up to about 145-ish at least once a week during my daily commute and about 165-ish about once every month or two. thats about it, I'm kind of a chicken.

I have taken my C5 to 160mph on an undisclosed highway then I ran out of room and was coming up on cars like they were standing still.
