    My freeway cruise speed is at 110 MPH

    The car is actually really silent up to that speed, when you go above it gets a little bit noisy though.

    Max Speed for 99 V6

    The max speed for the 99 v6 before feul cut off is 124mph or 200kmph. This was tested using a GPS while maintaining top speed. Also verified from the mitsu dealership. I've done this quite a few times on 1&9 N Expss lane. so if ur around and see a black 8G zzip by.. its me ;-)

    hit 140 on gsp in my 99 eclipse before it went back on lease, it was the scariest thing of my life. my dad hit 200 on route 17 in ny when he was driving a ferrari f40 and said he didnt notice the speed from the handling but the view was dizzying.

    Well, this damned civic egged me on, and I hit 136 at the fuel cut-off. Here is a pic of my Heads Up Display showing the Peak speed/rpms. Sorry if its a bit blurred, but had to take it with no flash.


    BTW, ES V6 with AEM Short Ram

    Thats right, Ive done way past 128 coming home from a Galant meet. It was about 4am and I was following Peano, Titan, when I took the wrong exit. Considering that I didnt know how the fuck to get out of that area, I flipped a bitch and sped off. Needless to say I caught up real quick (I wasnt able to turn around for a few miles).

    I seriously would like to know how you guys breaking 120 know how fast you are going seeing as though the speedo only goes to 120. I am NOT being a smartass, I am just curious.

    Oh and the most I have done is about 115 on I-10 heading to San Antonio from Houston. seems like it took forever to get there. I did not reach fuel cutoff I bagged off b/c I had a bad vibe about the laws and about a mile ahead of me was a state trooper heading the opposite direction.


    Back from the dead!!!

    7gs go to 140
    7g for life!

    I hit 120 like 2+ months ago. That was pretty damn fun. I love hitting rt. 287 getting close to NY because you can speed and not worry about cops. They don't have enough space to park on the sides, and they're never on the road so its fun as hell.

    I hit 117 one night on I-4 just north of Orlando, ran out of straightaway tho, it took like a full minute to move from 110 to 117 tho.
    What is the meaning of life? 42.
