I hit 140 in my 2.2 auto on I-71 in Ny .....I thought I maxed out at 130 but kept up and it took a extra 2-3 minn to get to 140 ....
I have no Limiter and pirellis so I am guessing thats why?

i'm callin bull on this one...
back on topic, my fastest was about 110... then i realized how stupid it was to be driving that fast... then i realized that i've only made 5 payments on my car... then i realized that any ******* can switch lanes and i'd hit him doing a buck 10...
needless to say, i slowed down

I have a 2006 HHR with the 2.2L and my speed gov's out at 110mph. Trying to find out where to get it reprogramed. SHe has lots of pep left in her, but the computer stops it.

Whats the point in going that fast though really? If your in that big of a hurry, you seriously need to reconsider your time management skills. I have hit 65mph, although... my car still has in transit stickers

there are a lot of shitty drivers out there, and none of them should have the ability to go even close to 110, let alone 140 area

Personal fastest, 100 mph going South I-19 with my stepdad. During the "break-in" process.
I didn't want to go any faster. And I wasn't cut off by the speed limiter, I just felt like I shouldn't be going that fast.

haha... first off, who said i maxed out? 2nd off, who said i have bridgestone tires? 3rd off, who said i have 15 inch rims?
get your facts right before you talk ****... and my car wasn't maxed out, i just didn't particularly feel like dying that night...
