Re: 92's hit 160???
The 92 is the fastest of all model years because it doesn't have a speed limiter on it. I think the top speed is 155.

The svx would probably take around a minute or so I'm guessing to top out with no wind involved-this is just a guess though

Re: 92's hit 160???
im just dying to put mine on a dyno, i wanna see its true power under that hood. i just love driving and seeing how fast i can go without pooing a little lol i never knew about the no limiter on the 92 so i figured i topped it. hmm thanks for giving me a higher goal now lol.

Re: 92's hit 160???
I can vouch for 140 and even feeling stable. At that time I decided it was better to just let go of the gas and let her slow down on her own. I was very suprized with how she felt at that speed though, I've been in a few cars at speeds close to, and they felt way too twichy.. but the svx felt as if it was right at home with it. Giugiaro's design works well

None of them have speed limiters except JDM.
