280 kph/ 174 mph in an Aston DB9 a few years ago, although I wasn't driving. Mine was 103 mph (woot, 2007 Accord V6) when passing a school bus that was parked at 70mph in the passing lane in Northern California on a road trip. Buses are huge and passing them requires much speeds. 

 

Road trips through California are so freakin' fun.

No clue speedometer tops out at 260km/h and I have broke 3 cables so a good bit faster than that. I will be soon getting over 200mph in a friend's father's car.

I know that feeling, was about 100 mph in a 45 (about since I was in km and my conversions might be off my 1 or 2), slowed down before going over a hill. Good thing, cop was there.

Yeah, I was on a straightaway that I live on. Cops hide out there sometimes but, it was like 2 AM and I live in the middle of nowhere so, I wasn't sure. Speed limit is 45 on my road too. If I had gotten pulled over I would have had to say goodbye to my license. And that would be terrible. Still impressed with my xterra though. It's really tall and I'm running off road tires.

 

Once drifted it through the S curve that was the entrance to my highschool after it rained... Scary af.

Probably 40 MPH, because I was driving around a parking lot. As a passenger, probably 150 MPH in a Gallardo Superleggera in Disney.

140 MPH in the Express Lanes on Interstate 91. I wasn't driving though, it was my uncle  :P  in his Cobra. The fastest I've driven is about 95 MPH in my Mazda.

Ferrari F12.

Have you driven an FF?

I am fifteen next week so I haven't driven yet but my dad has done 115 in our family car and when he used to be a race car driver he did 151 mph.

 

As a pilot the fastest I have gone is 221 mph.

What did your dad race?

Yup.

GT car through and through, though it works shockingly well in the winter.

Are you perhaps part of Oppositelock? I really want to be driven in or drive an F12 or FF in my life. I need to hear that V12.

I drove 120MPH in my mom's crappy minivan. It ain't loaded, so weight is kinda on its side. But then the engine was seriously starting to overheat.
