Well, let me try to explain it.

The maximum posted legal speed limit in the United States today is 75MPH. Going over this limit is illegal, as in not allowed.

Porsche (as do others) produce cars that are capable of exceeding the legal limit. They have no control over raising that legal limit.

So... Yes, you cannot use it.

Legally that is. Use it illegally, and the consequences are all yours (assuming no innocents are involved).


Cheers!
