Default Speed limiter?
Do certain new US Porsche Carreras have a top speed limiter? Some models of Mercedes AMG for example have a 150mph limiter.

Mercedes does not equal Porsche. They state the top speeds for all their cars on the Porsche website.

The limiter is the drag of the car.

The limiters are between your legs. The brass ones allow full speed.
