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. http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/x...pscm8wqiwe.jpg |
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. |

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!

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. |

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. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f3e0a28888.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...36fcd2df29.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...21d4efe37d.jpg |
575mph...
...on a flight to Dallas. |
