loubapache- Sorry it hits the governor at the redline. Won't go any faster, even downhill. Believe me, I have tried. I don't believe in soot in the pipe. Anyway, with all the bad posts about the 3.5, I try to blow it up at least once a month.

Fair enough.


116mph is still a pretty darn good clip that most cars never get to see. This 200 Saturn I drive around, when the weather isn't quite right for the 300D, tops out at about 90. Any greater and I'm afraid the sucker will shake it's self apart. I actually got a speeding ticket in it going 87mph. Dunno how I was going that fast, but thats another story.
