I went 120 in my Dad's '65 Impala when I was sixteen. I've been a passenger in a teen buddy's Torino going faster, but it was so long ago that I can't remember how fast.
On my way from my college graduation I was driving with another buddy in an '85 Chevette (say "shove-it")... We were passing many cars and my brother could not keep up in his Izuzu Trooper, but my speedo was barely struggling to read 55. I found out later that I was over 90 in that thing! Not the fastest, but likely the most dangerous of my adventures.

I get this question a lot, "How fast have you had it up to?"
Am I the only one that doesnt care about top end? Its ALL about acceleration. Yes I have been to some crazy top speeds and still pulling like a banshee, but it doesnt matter if it takes 1/2 hour to get there. lol
I currently own a 300whp ZX14, had several 1000cc sport bikes, Corvette doing about 550whp, Camaro that ran 11.1@122, on and on and on. Id be lying if I said I hadnt been to some crazy high speeds, but its all about acceleration. Even on my Turbo ZX14, I rarely go over 150mph. But thats about the top of 3rd right now with the long gears I have in it. lol

When i was a stupid kid, racing a T/A ws6, in my dads 89 750i, i think it shut down somewhere in the 150's but it was still pulling hard before it hit the limiter.
In my SHO, ive topped the speedo at 140 still pulling, GPS said 153 when i let off due to running out of asphalt.
*disclaimer* SHO was on a airfield runway.
