Fastes you've gone
Well i have had my porsche for about a week now and i figured what the hay so i floor it. Not sure what speed i got to but i know above 150mph. i was in 6th gear and about 1500 rpm from redline. all i have to say is at that speed the car felt like it was going at around 50mph. these cars are crazy stable at any speed and i just find that insane. i never thought a car could be like that at thoughs speed i always thought vars at thoughs speeds start to jump around and stuff expessilly a car as light as the prosche but i was proven wrong. so i was just wondering how fast have some of you gone.

Yo Mikepl. We got a buiness in Warsaw and Krakow Pl and I have driven there many times from Prague. Last time 2 weeks ago actually. I actually lived in Warsaw for 6 years until 3 years ago. Polish roads suck big time don't they 
. The best stretch is between Katowice and Krakow on the Toll road for speeding. Do you go and pose outside Sparka cafe on weekend mornings. Heh, lot of people up their own rear ends there parking their exotic cars sideways so you can see their vanity plates If you haven't seen it you should go and have a look

Usually I get a chance to go 230+ everytime I return from work. Don't need to drive during rushhour though.
Otherwise my top speed was something over 300 (didn't dare to look again after that) in my friends Aston Martin VanquishCan't beat the sound or the the impression on people seeing you in their rear view mirror.
Well for more than 240000 EUR ...

Harris I thought the top speed is 280 in a C2. Did it have some mods?

no mods, bit of downhill though....
analogue speedo...so accuracy not 100%
there are also some other P-owners here that have gone beyond 295 klms/h....with fotos as well.....

Three Wheelin'
135 mph in an old VW Corrado SLC
140 mph in a 2000 Boxster S
120 mph in my 2000 911 Cab
...and the record?
175 mph on my 1994 Honda CBR (it was pretty stable, but I won't kid you: my helmet was definitely feeling some buffeting in the windstream)
