That's funny.

The posted speed limit. :D

127 MPH at Mid-Ohio

136 in a Volvo 850 with the light pressure turbo. The 850R models had the high pressure turbo installed.
I can remember standing on the pedal and me wanting more, buts thats all she had.
It was on a stretch of road that parallels I10 in west Texas heading west. I was on my way to NM. I have my favorite places to stop while traveling and I had my eyes on that stretch for a long time.

It ran pretty smooth. It might be because the car was floating a little bit, but it never seemed to be out of control. Loved that car. 1987 Caprice Classic Brougham LS.

Well officer... as you know the earth rotates from west to east and so my speed clinging to the surface as I sit here stationary is about 1000 mph.

However I was driving west when you pulled me over so actually what ever you clocked me at should be subtracted from 1000 mph which means I was actually traveling backwards at about 900 mph.

I think that qualifies for some kind of record for speed or best excuse ever in a Boxster.

Lucky you didn't see me traveling east :D

(Frame of reference (Earth) is important as it is not specified in the laws and I will argue that in court just for the fun of it and to get my monies worth)

155 mph - 1997 993 C4S

i got 133 out of the boxster (indicated by speedo, could have been any speed real time). having a little tussle with a friend in his seat ibiza cupra R

No idea. It was fast. Beast attached. It is the current Boxster sibling.

CR

147 mph GPS verified entering a tunnel around the Italian Alps next to a big truck. Still had plenty more to give but the tunnel wall and changing light condition dents your enthusiasm.

Speedo said 110 in the Boxster when entering the Tollway in Florida a few weeks ago. Feels really smooth to that point, but had to slow down, too many police around.

In my younger (read stupid) days, I was in my 1990 Convertible GT Mustang. It had LOTS of mods and straight line was crazy fast. In the desolate stretches of I-5 between L.A. and S.F. I hit 148 (according to the speedo). I had the top down and it was loud. Looking back, it didn't feel all that stable, but as I said, I was much younger (21 (read dumber)). A little later on that drive a cop pulled me over, said he clocked me at 128 about three miles back. Don't know how I managed to get off with 75 in a 55 zone, and traffic school completely erased it.

I think my best was 129 mph in my modest 2.5L Boxster with my mother as my passenger... :eek:

180 mph. I was sitting in the left seat but unfortunately steering and pedals were on the right. I was in the first GT40 that John Wyer took to Le Mans and at Road America.

168 on GPS riding a CBR1000R... Only 128 in the Boxster :(

GPS recorded 150. I didn't look at the speedometer, was to busy looking at the road. Location undisclosed...

150 indicated, backed off once we hit the ton-and-a-half we were shooting for.

Utah Desert near Moab, with a spotter 2 miles ahead. Car had a lot more but the road surface didn't. Then did a 120-60 mph braking test that was way more exciting ;)

Meant to do a 0-150-0 timed test at the airport in the 991 C2S before selling, but never found the time and now it doesn't really belong to me anymore (buyer picking up in 2 weeks).

Haven't driven my boxster yet, boo hoo :(

Car:
RX7 FD 156mph

Motorcycle
ZX10R 185mph

Only about 110 mph on I-290 in Chi town in the Boxster. 230 kph in a BMW 118d on the A5 in Germany. An indicated 165 mph on the M3 back in the UK when I was (much) younger on a Kawasaki Ninja. Those were the days before marriage and speed cameras!

180 in a T-Rex, 120 in a S600 V12, 100 in the Boxster

147 in my 2004 Chrysler Crossfire

140 in my 2001 Boxster S

I have nothing to brag about when it comes to top speed in a boxster. 60mph! Woohoo!
But I did 120mph on an ice covered road in Alaska with my 1970 Olds Cutlass. I was 18 and I just got my speedometer working and I wanted to see if I could peg it out. Young, dumb and full of something else. I wasn't the driver, but a friend gave me a 161mph ride in his McLaren at COTA.

225KPH in my 2008 Nissan 350Z and 140KPH in my Boxster S.

175. Indy car. Non turbo. Las Vegas.

Traqmate certified in my Cayman S Sport:

only 130 at COTA & Indy (updated 5/5/18)
135 at KS Speedway in 2014, with several laps in the 130s

Was hoping for 140 at KS Speedway this yr, but the DE was cancelled after 3 sessions in a dispute between NASA & the Speedway. I had been working my way up the ladder with a top speed of 127.

Since my speed runs are on the track, no chance for a visit to the Gray Bar Hotel.

279 km/h on the odo in my Box S.
285 Km/h on the odo on a Bimota YB6.

105 mph in my Box on the straightaway @ Streets of Willow CA. Both ways uphill or down same max speed.

In 4 other cars in various places 135 mph, always thinking about what happens if I hit something that blows a tire makes me lift.

140 in my BMW 745. Smooth as ever, felt like I was going 90. I honestly wouldn't want to do that in the box.

Took 135 MPH on the freeway during the morning commute :)

260 km/h lots of straight left and empty highway

Speedo ended at 100, but fuel cutoff on my jeep was 114mph. I ran into it surprisingly fast.
Plug in programmer upped top speed to 128, but I never got that high

Touched 155 in my b5s4

Box has seen middle 120's

All indicated speeds were recorded in Mexico.

Wow......that would be one of the moments of my life being blown away by a Countach.... dream car bar none for me and hope never to drive one cos I know the dream would be somewhat shatterered.

With regards to top speed... an indicated 155 in the box and 160+ in my old Subaru impreza :cool:

Si.

Boxter and Zed
 

I have not really pushed my 2000 2.7 Boxster much. Mostly like to hit the twisties hard in my area. I can leave it in 3rd and she will naturally brake great.

I was going up a two lane freeway on-ramp when a WRX passes me and honks. I get on it and was on his tail all the way up to shifting into 5th gear. Looked down and was doing 115. We both let off about then and his cute blonde girlfriend gave me a thumbs up!

In my 2003 ZZR1200 I have hit 175 on a deserted highway near Moab Utah. Bike had plenty left I did not!

So far only 135 in the Porsche.

185 Mph as a passenger in a 993 twin turbo GT3 on autobahn heading in to Bitburg, same day 140 Mph in 944, driving back to Ramstein while owner slept in passenger seat.

My Boxster S only been 125 MPH for short burst, and my turbo 2008 Mondeo 135 MPH.

Almost got to go to Nurnburg Ring with my friend in his 993, but I got to cold had to head home. He now has a 997 Turbo, oversized turbo, and front drive removed, full carbon fiber pakage.

125 in the Box
140 Triumph Speed Triple

Your top speed?
 

An effortless 148 mph (per my gps) in my 2005 Jaguar XKR. Love my 986s, but I really miss my XKR with its supercharged 4.2 liter V8. It was a true luxury GT (and my daily driver when we returned to Houston after our 10 year expatriation).

I haven’t had the chance to take my 986 over 100 mph.
