05 Coupe TOPPED OUT'

wow. I've never had the ***** to take it higher than 120 in my G..
when i was young and stupid I topped out my accord v6 against this insane rx7 twin turbo... i was up against hte rev limiter and the speedo was at 145.. probably dumbest thing I've ever done. I think he was even more insane though.. he was this old looking japanese guy. i'd say 40s.. he had at least 15 carlengths on me and was still pulling when I was topped out.
I did nearly get busted going over 105 by laser.
If I didn't have my laser jammer. I woulda been in jail.
and I know it worked because he pulled over my friend in a truck following me at 90.
My friend was like "Why didn't you go after that asian guy in the G35?"
Cop's response: "I wasn't able to read his speed. So I just waited to catch any cars following him"
er.. but yeah. laser jammer or not... 158 is insane on a public road.

I awsome you were already on the 6th gear when you snap that pic? But I notice the "REV" light was on????

I'm not saying I always drive at this speed, this was only to test the limiter, but generally the traffic is a lot faster here.
As for the speeding thing it was the day shots were 6am saturday on the 71 south and north. the topped out shot was 60 west from corona to rowland heights.. i can tell you every major pot hole, hump, lump to avoid on that free way.. i can even show u how to exit the fullerton ramp (west) at 65mph.. but yeah i know the area well enough for me to do that.. plus like eddie said.. the car IS stable at that speed.. this isnt ur 1996 chevy camero or vette... but yeah i wouldnt recomend doing this on s-techs.. its alot bouncyer then the first time (stock)
btw i got 16mpg on this tank of gas O.O lol thats more hten what i usually get >.<

Funny, if this was done on the Autobahn, no one would have a problem. People keep your this isn't safe flames to yourselves. I was trying to do this on the I-10 between Phoenix and LA, but I didn't get enough room anywhere, too much traffic. I only got up to around 140. I plan to hit the ceiling sometime.

That's because most people in LA don't expect cars to be going 140. About half the drivers, when they change lanes, or make turns, base their decision on whether or not to go on the other cars' distance. They don't based it on the speed that the other car is going. I see this happen at least 5 times a day driving to work.
So if you're going 140 on the freeway, you can't expect that some other car is going to take notice, and stay out of your way. Again, half the drivers are going to just look, see that you're far enough back to make a lane change based on distance alone, but have no idea what speed you're going.
When people drive this fast on PUBLIC streets then people do have a right to express their concern for public safety. If you can honestly say that if someone took out your family going 150, that you would accept the urge to go 140+ as a legitimate excuse, then my hat's off to you. I can't.

I don't have as much as problem with this if you are going between LA /Phoenix/Vegas. The roads are much less packed, and there is more of an expectation of triple digit speeds there.
But I wouldn't call the 60 freeway middle of nowhere.
Although you may consider yourself a good driver, the other LA drivers are horrible. Right now on sigalert.com, I counted 27 accidents in LA and orange county. It's not even freakin rush hour yet! SUVs can't see or just plain don't care to look when they change lanes. People are too busy talking on cell phones, putting on makeup, sipping their Starbucks cappucino to take notice of a car going 150 MPH. Are you good enough to keep control of your G35 going 150 MPH if one of those drivers suddenly enters your lane?
