I've noticed higher speedo than GPS on every car I have had since getting GPS units. The P-car has been the worst. My Xterra was 5%, went to the dealer and they basically said it's within tolerance. I'm sensing cooking the books here. I'm thinking that there are big gains for the car companies to do this, warranty, MPG values. 5-7% values across many cars could add up.
Maybe not Grassy knoll.... Maybe I'm just getting old

Bummer is that when the speedo hits 100 I still need to go 107 to really get there
