Was that a warning light for the hood coming up?

Yea weird stuff on the dash, but the outside shot at the end is easily 200+ MPH and looks legit.

Maybe it's the air pressure build up pushing up on the hood and triggering the sensor.

Fast as hell if it is real. Was that a supercharger under the hood?

It has twin rotrex blowers, and yes its the real deal. And the yellow light is the traction control off.
If you think thats on a dyno, you're on crack.

I highly doubt that thing would go 232 MPH on only 780 HP unless that thing is very slippery (i don't know any specs on the cD), I would think it would take a bit more? 232 is MOVING.

Weight, aerodynamics and gearing all play a big part on top end speed. The McLaren F1 acheived 241 mph with 627 bhp. The old Jaguar XJ220 (a V6 car) achieved 211 or 214 mph with 550 bhp.

Ugly M6, but it moves!

The yellow light is dsc, ie traction control off, the indicator is the hood open indicator, and yes, its very believable, we have had them up to 177mph before. No joke. Aero plays a big part, gearing and 7 speeds will do it.

Look, it's the banned user &REY, posting links to honda-portal again. Just trying to drive traffic to his site. Worthless.
