It looks like speedometer is maxed out at 263 km/h while a tuned car with speed limiter removed can go beyond that speed.

This is an interesting thread since I truly have had my Supra parked for many of months. I have been enjoying my Mustangs and one in particular the new GT500. I took her out this weekend and ran her up to 128mph and felt like she kinda goes flat once you hit a buck 20. And not bashing her but when you ride around in the GT500 and my Hellcats your hitting 140-150 very quickly. She’s actually faster than I thought considering and took a brand new WRX and many other high line 400-500 HP cars as well. She’s incredible In the corners and just catches most others pretty easily.

Your saying your A90 falls flat after 120? Sounds like you need a tune to open it up more on the top end....

Yes for sure and once you hit the buck 20 mark she really loses the momentum and of course she’s not a 500hp plus car like my 700 plus other cars. So its expected but if I didn’t own the other cars not so sure it would be as noticeable is really my point. If you have open road and available long run she will for sure hit the buck 50 mark but will take awhile is my point.

I know exactly what your saying. The low end and mid end is great but top end isn’t there. The tq is where you feel most of the low end and mid end. But the peak Hp where the top end comes into play.... I mean it’s a stock 335whp car. I think if you get her up to 400-450whp. You will be a lot more happy with the top end .

Interestingly, the autobahn provides the top speed as opposed to Suzuka. 298km/h or 185 mph on gps.

I am sure it's only a matter of time who will crack 300km/h.

Two YouTube videos, different cars
& different drivers on the Autobahn, show the car hitting the limit at 263kph or 163mph. Toyota says 155, but that’s clearly low.

I have “only” take her to 154mph on a very nice stretch of toll road with no cars around. The car felt stable for sure and that it had more to offer.

Experiences?
I've got to 167 mph in mine before I was tuned and now I'm tuned and removed the speed limiter but haven't tried it again and probably won't for a while

Taking mine to Germany tomorrow for a four week holiday, let's see if we can get her to 250 kph (if my wife doesn't freek out)

PS can you remove the speed limitor using bimmercode? Or does it have to go in to a tuner? I'm running racechip tune so she should be able to crack the 250+, would love to try

Thought I would post a video of a modded Supra and what is capable.
Anyone seen higher?



Enjoy
Very impressed on how stable the car looks at 183 mph. At that speed even a bird strike can be deadly.

Probably not the best idea with the possible brake failure. I don’t want to find out in stopping my Supra over 150mph with no brake booster hahaha even If it does say we can a few pedal pumps before it completely fails. Haha ?
