I don't think the speedo is off, but I actually do think the tach is off by around 100-200 rpm, as it usually says the car is idling at 800-900rpm, and it was claiming 4000-4100 rpm at 103 mph.....so its probably slightly off. The speedo is very accurate though. Cruise on that car works perfectly too, its amazing to see it work like that, mine just likes to plummet the pedal the floor and not let go I'm going to mess with mine once its warmer out.
