32 - that was from the tow truck to the driveway after DOT Salvage inspection. Still not registered yet. I'm getting impatient, Monday I get my plates!

138 mph with 5hz GPS data logger on a proper race track. April 4, 2014 CFOS
I tend to stay within the grey areas of the speed limit on public roads.

That's 164.66 MPH, highest so far. Did a governor kick in? I'm curious to this Boxster 164 MPH top speed I have read about.

I'm often asked, "how fast will it go?"
I reply, "According to road tests I've read, it is supposed to go 165 or so, but I've never taken it above 140." But I never say how far below 140 I've driven it, I just leave them to believe whatever they want to believe.
In truth, I haven't done that kind of speed on public roads in many years.

Fastest speed on a public road
116mph, top down and it felt much faster, top up since it had a tear 80mph too noisy and different feeling these speeds were achieved at 2am pretty much clear roads.

I'm good for right now too, until I get my exhaust upgrades and tune done. 
The car was very planted, I even changed lanes to get ready for my exit. I said this was 2 lanes one direction, it's actually 3 lanes one direction.
Street view and I took the 152 exit.
