My car is not a daily, but when I am driving it (and only on highways or an open country road), it is quite easy and it is nice to see the extra digit light up .

I routinely go over 80 without realizing it and then back off. 100 seems safe enough on an open stretch until a deer ends your life. Be careful out there.

100 isn't too hard in a n/a s2k.

Gotta clean all that carbon build up out.

Who cares, it's not like the s2k has great aero...it becomes unstable at higher speeds.

The last time I hit 100 mph, five NJ patrol cars stopped me. Just like what's mentioned above, I was just checking if everything was still working correctly. A clean record and being apologetic to the cops saved my ass that day.

I've only hit 100 twice since I got the car 4 months ago. I don't intend to do it again unless I am on the track. Simply isn't safe and certainly not worth the consequences.
