Take a look at some WRX Sti's. For some reason those scooby drivers love the gold rims...
Nice ride though. Needs a snail under the hood.

5th gear in a 5spd 420a is capable of 153mph, but their are limitations that keep stock 420a's from doing that, suspension(obsoleat at 120), tires(depending on what you buy), down force (stock low wing obsloeat at 112). The fastest I had her up to was 138... I will never do that again... too scary in that pos car.
Edit: also horse power plays a huge part too.

Wanna talk scary? I pulled 120 in my Honda Del Sol. that fast in a 2 seater where you can touch the front and the back of the cockpit at the same time is nerve racking. lol

I don't know I buried the needle in my Eclispe 2000 GT automatic few times I just would go to auto shift and drop down to 3rd then back up to 4th. I get off work at Midnight and I used to live in Burbs so I had this 5mile strip of open highway on I57 so I used to open her up at least once a week.

Ya the STis come stock with the option of the silver or bronze wheels they are the same just diff colors. And the bronze on the STi should be standard it look really good. WRXs I think have the same option but there rims are different from the STi I may be wrong on the WRX though

You want scary fast try driving my '64 Dodge Coronet at I'm guessing what was 115-120 MPH... Big almost 1/2 ton beast with the speedo needle bouncing between 100 and 130 and with every bump the front floating up in the air (No seeing the road) and then coming back down (Seeing nothing BUT the road)...The ONLY time I pulled THAT off...NEVER again until I get things fixed so she's steadier... or I sel her...
