Ok, i was wondering if anyone here had an accurate measure of the 8G 4 banger's top speed....i read somewhere that it was 190km/h which is about 118 mph but today on my way to school i had the needle pegged and was definitely going faster than 120...not a problem but im just wondering if anyone else has the same experience...

I always thought the govenor was set at 115? I have never taken my car past that but don't really need to since I was always at the finish line before that....

Hmmm i dunno...its weird tho..sometimes i can hit 120+, other times i have NOOOO power once i hit 110, like the needle STAYS at 110 and doesnt move an inch..galants are really not racecars anyway, so i dont really expect much..my parents wont let me get anything fast though..so i have to make do with what ive got...
