Nissan 370Z Forum  

what is the fastest you have had your Z too?

I have reached 100mph. I will never go more than that. I already have a fobia. Got accident way back from the PI.

I have hit about 135 with the Z - seemed like it had plenty more to go ... but never topped her off

I do 80-85 every day in an MX-5 (reverse commute against prevailing flow) just to keep up. I can vouch for aerodynamics trumping weight and wheelbase in the stability at speed department. The little Miata just hunkers down on the road and asks to go faster.

Top indicated speed in the MX5 (closed course, of course) is 128 -- bumpin' redline cutoff. The little roadster felt light, but stable. No shake or shimmy. No problem. A little more engine and she'd be good for 140-ish. That said, I wouldn't want to wreck at any more than about 40 in this light tin can, however confidence-inspiring she may be.

BTW -- I put my order in on a 2010 370Z Coupe today...if that makes my commentary any more relevant to this conversation.

I experienced the opposite on my test drive. I was doing about 95 and I thought I was doing about 75. Slowed down in a hurry, glancing around frantically for cops............................
