Hell Sniper, your 928 is probably still faster than my Mustang...I'm electronically limited to 151....not that I've been anywhere near that. Get caught going over 100 anywhere in Oregon, it's a minimum $2,000 fine with a loss of license for a minimum of 30 days. Depending on the mood of the cop and the judge, it can also mean jail time & loss of car.

I managed to hit 155+ one time on a VERY long straight away VERY late at night.
In a quarter mile you'd destroy me. A twisty back road would be interesting though. A 2900lb, 300rwhp, lowered 928 with the optional Bilstein/Eibach/LSD suspension is no joke at all in the curves.
I scared the snot out of myself earlier tonight on Henry ave (very curvy local road) in my 928. Was my first outing of the season in it, i've been driving a little 5 speed 2004 Saturn i picked up cheap at the auction.
Needless to say, going from a little Saturn to a decidedly un-street legal 928 is
ONE BIG MASSIVE FKING RUSH!
Nothing like getting sideways in the twisties in a big V-8 powered Porsche
Note: Not spinning out and crashing ass end first if you decide to change throttle settings or brake mid curve is a nice treat too!
