when i got my Mazda 3 i took it on a long empty backroad to wind it up, got it to 200 before the governor kicked in. though the car did that quite easily and i wasn't worried at all
the scariest speed i've been at was maxing out my old dodge aries k-car at 170. the speedo stopped at 140, but i buried it far past that and guesstimated how fast i was going. it wasn't too fun though as the car was starting to violently shake as it really didn't like being driven at those speeds
