Top Speed
Not sure if this has been asked already or not. Does the FR-S have a Top Speed shut off or can you just push it to the metal and go?

It's been asked before, but no biggie. If you search around you can find video of someone taking it to 147 on the autobahn.

Thanks for the info. I searched YouTube and the only thing I found remotely close was the FR-S on a dump going 169.

I personally went 127. IT felt like it could have pushed a little more, but I didn't want to be any more reckless than i already was

Stock car would never reach that in real world driving. Wind drag will limit top speed. Interesting to see the mechanicals good for it though.
