No way you will goto a FEDERAL PRISON for speeding.
well idk about federal prison but they will take you down to central bookings and u will defently have to spend a night in jail.

I've hit 125 with ease, i'm sure the 250 can hit 140mph with no problem.
I've hit 135 and I knew I could've hit 140...but then I backed out...

btw...anyone who lives in the sugar land/houston area...if you want to hit high speeds...go to grand parkway from new territory going towards katy....its fun.

I wouldn't have time to post anything else, if I were to point out everyone's mistakes on here! But, like you, I'm shocked that educated (I presume) people cannot properly compose a sentence, or spell correctly. (By the way, it's "grammar".)

LMAO. got em
i don't really think that grammar really matter. what matters here and whats most important is that we have 'park assist'.

so remember. whenever your upset. just tell yourself
its ok, i have park assist

Gotta chime in on this topic as i just drove to vegas from l.a. and after reading this post, i HAD to see what FAST would feel like. I got up to 120 on a long straightaway and it felt CRAZY! it felt like at about 115 it got really quiet and smooth, it kind of scared me a little! hell, i've gone 105 in my old '91 ford escort, and i worked my way up to the 120 in the 350. but i swear, the difference in 105 to 120 was really pretty huge to me. when that EVIL red glow at 100mph comes on, you just have to grin!!!

I don't care about the title because I understand what you're asking.

But fyi, it is driven.

This one time, a Lambo tried to race me. Worst mistake of his life.
I slammed on the gas but it wasn't enough. I flipped my nos switch and all of a sudden, wings came outta my car and I started flying.
/sarcasm

Seriously though, highest I've ever gone was 120. Felt so slow after coming back down to 90 lol!
