Fastest You've Ever Gone in Your Car?

[Rotary Junkie]

In my current 2011 Volkswagen Gti I went 110 on one occasion. In my pervious 2008 gti, I went approximately 135 a few different times. I must say going fast is fun but I rarely do it anymore because I lost my license once already and it really is not fun. My 2008 Gli I ha in between the two Gti's I don't think I ever went over 95, granted the engine was fried.

So...

We were right?

180 km/h (around 110 mph) or so in an '03 Corolla CE.

 

[extreme car]

201 km/h honda civic FD1, R18A, A/T, stock.

 

[Rykon Zero]

Cruising down the autobahn, we hit 170 a few times overtaking "slow" cars. Err, KMH. So that's a new record for now, I think.

What is it about this thread that causes so many AUP blindspots despite repeated reminders?

 

[Rykon Zero]

Acute Failure of Common Sense? Happens to me sometimes. Which is why I always recheck my posts!

The more you know!

Yea, I'm OCD about check & re-checking, when it comes to most digital communications I litter the interwebz with.. (as well as editor in many instances )

 

[JOSHIE-G]

Dont know wasnt my car

 

[Centura]

~150 km/h (~93 mph) in a Saab 9-5 Aero '03 and a Saab 9-3 Vector '08.

My girlfriend has been faster in the SVTF than me. She bragged about hitting 100 in it, but later copped to only doing 95.

I haven't been over 80 in it.

 

[DannyBarisGT]

190 km/h (118mph) in my Mazda MX5 on the autobahn offcourse.

 

[huskeR32]

130 is the fastest I've gone in my current car, I hit 145 in my old Z28.

Wait what lol? Sorry its been a while.

 

[SkateNj]

95 in my moms nissan quest. 6000 pounds And 100 horsepower limits top speed

When you made your last looking-for-a-car thread we basically said "Why? You'll just blow off anything and everything we suggest and buy something completely different to any of the suggestions". You'd done it the last time.

So, we were right. You did exactly that. Just gonna note that.

 

[Pearltsx]

My currant 08 Acura TSX 125mph
My last car, a 99 camaro ss 155mph only cause the limiter wouldn't let it go more but she still had plenty left

 

[Wyvern89]

132 on my MA70 Supra.

 

[Gazumagi]

115 in a miata that my dad sold to a friend who worked with a mazda raceteam ()

125 in my dad's old subaru wrx (also sold )

Both of them are awesome cars, sad that he sold them T_T;

65 in my Cr-Z!

 

[robert_]

130 when I was in Germany. I drove a BMW 525d '04.

 

[masonholmes]

...65 in my Cr-Z!

What do ya think of the CR-Z? I soo wish they had a non-hybrid version that I could pick up down the road someday, used, as new cars are a total ripoff & hybrid batteries have a crap lifecycle. (plus I'm just not hybrid-friendly ) Having just seen them, basically in GT5, I saw one IRL for the first time a few weeks ago & was surprised that they actually look Ok. Not a huge fan of the rearend/fender to tail-light area or whatever, but otherwise..

@masonholmes: It's a nice car for me personally-it's not a killer sportscar by any means, but if i'm not running late to school (almost never) i can take a canyon instead of freeway, which is loads of fun even though i drive it rather slow ^^ I personally find it to have a good balance of playfulness and the ability to be a good commute car.

Relatively cheap+good fun w/o being anywhere close to dangerous speeds is nice for a college student; don't know about those "adult" weirdos though

@masonholmes: It's a nice car for me personally...

Cool, I'm sure it'd be sweet with an RSX engine or something. Seems like a pretty nice college car.. I felt lucky to have one worth about $5k & that wasn't so long ago.

 

[ZohsixGT5]

140... But i dont like to admit it. Pretty dumb on the highway.

 

[lrn]

240 km/h (149 mph) on an empty autobahn ...

 

[Manuelos]

234km/h / 145mph on the autobahn when comming back from the Nordschleife in my MR2 Turbo

 

[Darkblaze]

yeah, its so easy for me to believe that most of you have driven at 140+ mph -_-

A quite a few of us on here Race irl. Sooo yeah. Plus, not pointing fingers here, but some people aren't really that smart with their driving habits.
Although I do agree with you a little.

As do I.. when you get to those kinds of speeds there's quite a bit of wind resistance etc. to overcome. Thanks to jacked up gauges I'm not sure how fast I've had the RX-7 so far, but I know it get's there @ a decent rate.

 

[Starlet]

Fastest I've ever gone was 160km/h in my dads car.
