    75mph in mine is 3,000 rpm
    The fastest I drove was around 100 mph and I gave it a squirt of gas and the car wanted to go faster so I got scared and slowed down. My car seems to have more power going 75 or 80 than it does going 55. Does anyone else have that problem. Its easier to drive about 75. I am afraid to rev past 4,000 rpm because the engine makes a lot of noise over 3,000

    That is where the most Honda's love to cruise, around 80mph. Cruising at 80 in 5th you have more power than cruising in 5th at 55. I do not consider that a problem, it is how the car is designed.

    When I'm crussing up to 15mph over the speed limit it works fine, anything above that I can't slow down fast enough. Most of the cops here like to hid around corners where by the time the radar/laser hits you it is too late so I still have to be carefull.

    In the SHO I got a little over 135 at the top of fourth, almost at redline (7,300 rpms), then I got a little freaked and slowed it down, that was fast enough for me, hell I still had another gear!

    Will let you know about the DX soon enough!

    It's fun, but not on my stock brakes, I gotta wait till I upgrade because I don't think I'm stopping to fast at that kinda speed.

    I would love to get a video of this or me flying by, it would be awesome!
