Yes, '94 and later SVXs have an electronic speed limiter, but it's not the rev limiter. There's a very simple explanation why a rev limiter wouldn't curb an SVX's top speed: The '92 and '93 SVXs are only limited in their top speed by drag. I seem to remember reading that the SVX's gearing, if the car had enough power, would allow it to reach over 200mph before redlining. I'm almost certain that all model-year SVXs have a rev limiter and '94-up SVXs have speed governing circuitry, as well. Whether or not those ECUs also contain features that hinder those cars' performance, I don't know - but I suspect that's the case.

i never understood why BMW's were also referred to as sharks - the 928 actually LOOKS like a shark, but i don't see the connection with BMW.
