the factory rated top speed for the GTS was 171mph, but i have a video of Al Holbert setting two FIA speed records for a production vehicle (they did tape up the headlights) in an '87 S4 (the one i had ) in the flying kilometer and flying mile at Bonneville Salt Flats – 171+mph. the S4 was factory rated at 167mph. i'm guessing the GTS could do a little bit more than 171mph with the 30 extra horsies.
