    i have hit almost 114 mph in I4 here in orlando, I'm surprise I didn't get pulled over cuz I4 in orlando has cops coming out of every corner. but yeah thats the fastest i have ever had it, but i guess it's also cuz i had some1 in front of me helping me out with the draft, but then i got my *** handed to me when that person took off flying.

    I-4 is not only cop ridden, but it is a seriously dangerous highway, especially near Disney with all the tourists...

    ive done 115 a few times on HIGHWAY 4 to get to class (final/midterm) feels good up until theres a corner. i have to agree with nfpgaskmask, with gas at around 3.2 bucks a gallon 65 on cruise control is teh way to go.

    On my way to the Zoo last year I hit at least 110 - that's with the 31.5's. It felt stable enough to me... but then again I have had a '76 CJ-5 with a cherry bombed 304, 3-speed, and 31's up to 110 at night when the soft top started collapsing onto itself... and me! What a rush... but I would never do it again... or would I...

    Thumbs up Zu Zoo VI...

    I seem to recall a convoy of VX owners haulin' A** out of Colorado towards Moab at 90-100, and taking no pity on Tim's difficulty keeping up.

    Oh yeah, it was right after stopping here...

    i hit somewhere between 105 and 110 in my vx on i-95 didnt really look at the speedo much cause i was makin sure not to hit anythin! problem is i failed to see the cop sitting on the overpass... he was cool about it at least... knocked it down to 65 in a 55

    in other cars ive done 130 in an 88 honda prelude si (3 wide, us a hyundai tiburon and mitsu lancer) and a hair over 130 in an audi a4

    HAD to wring her out about the second or third day I owned her...topped out somewhere around 105-107.
    That was bone stock...haven't tried it since adding s/c etc.
    Probably be the same, just get there quicker.

    yeah in I4 IT'S STUPED TO DRIVE FAST, BUT I JUST NEEDED TO KNOW HOW MY VX COULD HANDLE IN HIGH SPEED AND WHAT WAS IT'S TOP SPEED, OTHER THEN THAT, I DONT TRY TO PUCH IT ANYMORE, CUZ THIS FREAKEN SUV IS A BITCH EXPENSIVE TO FIX. I ALREADY HAD BLOWN MY OLD 99' RODEO LSE 3.2V ENGINE AND MAN THE REPAIR WAS A B!tch, SO I JUST GOT RIDE OF HER, AND THEN MY 01' RODEO SPORT i4, I HAD BLOWN THE TRANNY CUZ I NEVER NEW THE LAST IDIOT DIDN'T CHANGE THE FLUID FOR A LONG AS TIME, AND THAT JOKE COST ME 1,400 BUCKS. NOW WITH THIS 1 I'M BEING SO CARFUL, I CHANGE ALL THE FLUIDS AND MANTINE IT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, especialy after the last owner of this Ironman didn't know how to take care of her.
