Default What's the top speed you've gotten your 2010 Mustang to??

I got mine to about 132mph, the speedometer says 140mph but I'm positive it will go faster than 140mph.


What are all of yours?

When driving up I-95 from Myrtle Beach to NY 3 days ago I was alone on the road so was cruising at 130 for a few. Its exhilarating, yet pretty fricken scary.

I had a 2010 at 145 indicated on a German Autobahn, and my wife made me back out of it

I've only been up to about 100 so far in my 2010, I dont get to drive it much. (not my daily driver)

I got my 2004 up to 130 though. The guy I sold it to was an ex-cop. He asked me how fast I'd had it up to. When I told him, I dont think he was expecting that answer! The look on his face was priceless!

115 here on a lonely and relatively narrow two-lane road. I agree with MikeNavy... it was pretty awesome but scary as heck at the same time. I swear, one of these days I'm going to run her down the runway at my airport (I'm an air traffic controller)!

I am an engineer in the auto industry. Way back when, I was working for Roush and was tasked with the brake certification on the Roush Stage III, 4.6 Super Charged of the day. I had it up to 172 mph on the Ford Arizona 5 Mile PG Track. Yes, it was surely 172 as we had a 5th wheel hooked to our instruments. It freakin rocked!!!

Wasn't mine, but it was fun as hell.
