Nissan 370Z Forum  

What was the fastest you guys driven?

141 in my 370 the day I bought it while test driving. 178 in my 96 Mustang and 158 in my 05 Mustang (the hood shakes really bad around 120).

How did it feel like driving that fast on the new Z? Was it pretty stable at that speed?
They let you test drive that car going that fast!!!

I took the very next exit which was about 2 miles down the road and dipped into my girlfriends neiborhood and parked in their garage. I waited about an hour before I took her to dinner that night.

The 350Z held up decent at those speeds. Better than my tC or civic. Even on the open highway is scary because my only thought was some idiot could have pulled out of no where or something crazy like a deer could have ran across the highway.

Bangin the rev limiter on my 06 CBR1000RR in 6th. I'm guessing that's somewhere around 190.

140ish in my S2000 and 130 in my TRD supercharged Tundra.

190? Sorry, no way. All Japanese bikes are electronically limited to a maximum speed of 186. And the Kawi Ninja 1400 is the fastest ricer.

The Ducati Desmosedici is limited production, and it can go at least 197mph. It has 200hp on tap.....................

Were you on a track when you went that fast? That's pretty fkin fast..........

So theres only a few people who've hit 160? (155) that is very surprising to me. I thought it handled fantastically, no buzzing rattles or any kind of instability. Which is more than i can say for the other cars ive done so in.

Edit:

Tvfreakazoid this may have been on my private i-71 South. so to answer your question. 160
