Not that I have found myself above 100mph.... here.
Tcoat - I doubt the handling of the fsr is worse then a focus station wagon at 220 kph.... That was VERY floaty and felt very unsafe.... didn't stop me though.
I should add... I got a speeding ticket 2 months later.... 8 kph over... 10 euros.

I have plenty of autobahn experience with my gt86. You are correct autobah can be quite curvy. I managed to hit 250km/h with my bolt on NA car. The thing is that due to the short wheelbase the gt86 is not all that stable at high speeds. You have to be extra concentrated and if there is a bump in mid corner you can spin out. Oem diff will help you with that. My "safe" fast driving on authoban is now between 180 to 210 km/h. Also as underpowered as gt86 is even on autobahn the momentum is the key. I managed to keep up with much much faster cars better then I expected. Once gt86 is rolling and the revs are up it is quite fun also on autobahn.
