It's actually a three year old thread, if you count from the original post.

I'm sorry ,I'm 19 and I drive like a ******* lunatic, I'm not gonna lie, I do, but for some reason, I'm not dead......yet........I'm not dead.........yet I gotta keep telling myself that, oh well, all I can say is, yup, we got the limiter at 125, even the 6spd ATs, but for some reason, I managed 132 on 4th gear, but when I shifted to 5th, the rev limiter kicks in, I don't know whether its only on the 5th and 6th gear or not, I'm sure it has been discussed some where on this board, everything has

and dude, I don't rly care if you speed man, I'm not saying its right either, but if you turn out in a really crazy car accident, and this other poor dude which u pwned died, and u probably in 2-3 pieces, I will be laughing my *** off at you so hard, you will start to cry there in your death bed paralyzed, either completely or partially, and if thats the case, well then you brought it on yourself man

anyone else feel free to do it to me too if I get pwned ok? as I said before, I'm a crazy *** driver

WoW, very irresponsible speech. nice.

in that case, lets just hope that if anything happens to you will happen to you, ONLY, meaning you either hit a wall or just fly off the bridge. please pull anyone else into your own stupidness, keep it to yourself.

Sorry I didn't ready all 5 pages... tired

Anyway, I have a 06 auto and under conditions that were safe for everyone but me, hit about 144, so unless thats a new limit in the 07's, 125 is not the max.

1st of all, you have a shinka, so are you sure its an AT? and second of all, convertible? wtf?

and don't care about other people saying that above 100= dangerous, blah blah

we all must have at least did it once, and please admit it, it feels god damn good doesn't it? unless ur 5billion years old, and you definitly don't drive an rx-8, maybe you confused your car with a mazda3?1.8l?

They do make AT Shinka's (the 06 is a 6speed).
The Convertible is a joke.

And driving a car faster then the posted HWY Speed is dangerous, reckless, and you could easily kill someone or yourself.

People who understand this drive more cautiously for the safety of your passengers and the people around you. You cant ask them to take the risk.

I am only 23, so dont call me old.

Ummmm.... I didn't know we could repeat a thread that was dead. If you looked at the posts from before we are almost completely copying ourselves. Too funny.

Oh and of course the ATs are faster fool. Why would Mazda make a manual faster? That's just silliness, folly, fodder, whatever I mean of course the AT fall faster than Manuals. They are heavier right?

reason for 125mph topspeed = OP is too chunky and weighing the car down.

When I owned a Z28 their were several times I would head out to the south of town and do 100+ mph passes. If you are on a two lane road with no inlets or outlets then the danger is to no one but yourself.

Anyone stupid enough and irresponsible enough to drive their car at 100+ mph speed on a public road deserves to lose their license for a very long time.
