Why is everyone such babies about this? Its a performance car, like you never went over 100 anywhere with it?

Because admitting to going double the speed limit on a public forum isn't smart. :confused:

I think you are going to see a much bigger portion of the community keeping more of a DIY perspective and we should start seeing some new ideas out there as well.

Basically babies. Its not stance nation, its new owners. Stodgy old turds always get frustrated when new people come in.

Change is good. Change is inevitable.

I think I hear a whambulance en route. Echoing the statements of others, I have more fun with the Z accelerating from a low speed to the speed limit quickly, then letting off the throttle. My bimmer lived above 120, but the gas mileage at that speed was disgusting. I even got my winter beater up to 115 once, the 110hp 4 banger sounded like it was going to explode. All of this happened on closed courses in Nigeria; no laws were broken.

Why? You know how many lies exist on forums? Is there a real chance that state police are gonna come on a forum, look at the thread, track down the user, then keep a special lookout for a 370z going 125? As if they'd ignore it going 85?

In all seriousness, whats the maximum realistic negative consequences?

I can neither confirm nor deny that I've exceeded the posted 75mph on the highways here in Colorado.

Well, that's not entirely true; I did get pulled over in the mid-90's in my TT 300zx for, and I quote; "I don't know how fast you were going, but I know it was too damn fast" - it took the trooper about 2 miles to catch up from the point I noticed the red and blues waaaaaay back there; but because I pulled over and waited for him, and the Porsche kept going, I was let off with a warning.

Now I'm older, wiser, and have the money to go to the track to be stupid. :D

So this is what the forum is like without the OG's holding it down lol

Exactly why this thread is stupid, who cares how fast you can go on a smooth open highway, a minivan can do 110+. How fast can you do a lap on some track that's something.

I'm guessing Krazzz since he started a thread about it.

I wonder how much fuel that took... I remember an episode of Top Gear where they put the STIG in a Prius to go as fast as possible around the test track... Then Jeremy got into a V8 M3 and his only task was to keep up with the Prius. At the end, the M3 used less fuel.
