Fastest speed you have gone while driving a Porsche. I understand that speeding is dangerous and increases the crash risk most continue to speed (including me). However, knowing that there is no such thing as safe speeding, we continue to speed. Some speed in dangerous situations and other speed in isolated roads (no deer crossing). Considering this here is my fastest speeds, model, year of make, top speed, for how long sustain speed…

-964c2, 1990, 145mph for 8-9 minutes.

-993c2, 1995, 155mph for 5-7 minutes.

-997c2, 2006, 130pmh for 7-8 minutes.

 

986 S - 145 - 2 seconds
997 S - 140 2 seconds

 

Speeding isn't unsafe. Speeding doesn't kill. There always has to be another factor.

That said, I rented a Carrera in Germany back in 1991...drove it 275 km/h all day long.

 

2005 C2S on the Autobahn in Germany crusing @ 150

My 2005 C2S on a country road in IL ...155....2min

 

2006 C4S/Autobahn/170mph-2 secs
/150mph - 20 minutes

 

Here are some top speed recorded on the electronic speedometer:

1999 - 996 Sold – 269 Kph – 168 Mph
1999 - 996 GT3 Mk1 Sold - 312 Kph – 195 Mph
2001 - 996 Turbo Sold – 298 Kph – 186 Mph
2002 - 996 GT2 Sold – 322 Kph – 201 Mph
2005 - 997s Current – 301 Kph – 188 Mph
2007 - 997 GT3 Ordered – Expect 320 Kph – 200 Mph

Top speed for only a couple of seconds.

 

I've hit 140 a few short times... I like it better when I can average 95-100 for a long drive. That is an accomplishment.

 

996: 145 mph for about 3 seconds.

 

Do insurance companies monitor these forums? I'll pass n this one.

 

yes..they will look up your name and address and raise your rates - could we be any more paranoid?

 

Okay, remind me not to be your passenger... impressive mph numbers

 

 

169mph in a '99 C2 for 3min (back road in MS)

 

150mph in 997S, 165mph in 996tt.

Both on the back straight at Sebring.

Completely legal, naturally

 

Roughly 150 for a few seconds in both my previous E46 M3 and my current C2S. Although the C2S is faster and handles better, I felt more confident in the M3 at this rate of speed. The front of the C2S felt a bit floaty. I'm probably going to get flamed for this comment but its the truth
