Default Top Speed on your AUTOMATIC Neon

So whats the top speed you got on your automatic neon??
On my stock 04 neon sxt, i got 105, and i have yet to do anything to it.

132+. And it kept pulling.

Then again, I don't have a stock ATX.

Damn Crazy, thats crazy! I've had mine up to 117 in 4th, it was still pullin pretty well when I left off, I chickened out. And as far as I know, I would of only made it to 122 anyways if I had kept going.

And I've only got 3 gears and never hit the rev limiter last time I did that.

Lately, I've had the car to 110+ but that's cause there was no one on the highway and I don't get to drive the car much anymore so I do it to burn the cobwebs out of it.

I've got GPS and a Digital camera. I'm sure I can work something out next time I do it where I snap a pic of the speedometer on the GPS.


GPS's don't lie.

I hear ya casper. I don't believe the 135+/- from TJW815 with an 03, if I'm not mistaken they're limited to 122mph unless he so managed to take that off. In which case he wouldn't know he was going 135 because the SXT speedo only goes up to 120.
