A guy was caught doing 147 on a speed camera in Arizona in a Hyundia Sonata, and I have had a Toyota Camry up to 143(scary as hell!). So speeds of that nature do not require much power or awesome aerodynamics and for the last time I did not say I could do 200, just close like maybe 190. ****!! Here I am arguing with you guys again, I guess I just cant stop. Oh well, youll all be eating your words soon.
And birds will be eating your brain matter off the highway if you try to go 200 in that 3rd gen.

Sure... I'll do it.

First you say your call will do "200-ish". Then, when you realized how full of **** we all knew you are you backed it off to "190-ish". Your own terminology.

What the **** is "ish"? Based on what I've seen in your posts you think 190 is 200-ish. So, 190-ish must be 180 (or the 175 I told you your car MIGHT manage). I've asked you this before and you've ignored it.

Prove your claims (with VIDEO) or go away.

To me "ish" means I dont know because I dont have a functioning speedo and I just threw 200 out there as a rough number and when i realized people were gonna get picky about it then I got more specific with 190"ish" which to me and most others would mean within 2-3mph. And maybe I just love agging you guys on so I might not go away, I know what my car will do so this doesnt really bother me. And if I show you a video of me doing 185-190 on gps will you shut your ******* mouth?

You throw 200 out there like it is nothing, and dismiss 190 just the same. We are giving you a hard time because you have no firm grounding in reality. It is nothing personal...we just think you are stupid and should probably stop posting altogether. That's all. Personally, I'd leave you alone if you just went on your way and never posted another worthless comment ever again. But for some reason, I just don't see that happening.

What happened to 200? Man, you just don't know when to quit...
I think you would have been better off to just back down. Now you've lost credibility and risk a really ugly accident by trying to back your claim. I doubt you'll see 170 "ish".

Problem now is that instead of just admitting you were talking ****, you're feeling the need to prove you can do 190. I wish you'd just admit that you made a dumb claim not try and prove it. You and someone innocent may get seriously hurt. Just let it go.

You have a serious case of DKS (Don't Know ****). What makes your case especially acute is you don't KNOW that you don't know. In the software world we call this a "race condition" or "endless loop". Let me tell you Boy... you're one looping ************.
