forgot to add im getting my windows tinted at the end of the month. my MS3 is black and im getting i think a 35% tint, so it isnt that dark but with black on black will be nice. this place is a good place to get it done, and since in NJ and getting front windows done, they will take them off the day of inspection(not til 2010) and put them back on the same day if needed. and all of it is under warrenty. so im pretty excited, one more step toward stealth.

max speed
I'm paying more than i'm required each month and I see my monthly goin down.
I saw on youtube an ms3 reached 150mph. damn, i want to see if I can do the same on a straight stretch of highway when it's all clear at night (no other motorist). But I'm afraid it might take me 30 sec. to get there and do I dare to spend 30 seconds in the highway goin for triple digits and risking there would be a cop within that 30 second stretch? how long do u think our cars will take to max out at 155mph?

RE: max speed
I suspect it is a long trip to 150 mph. I'm happy staying under 120 mph. I ran my Camaro up to 150 one time and even with it's power it required a lot of ground. It was test for 0-150-0 in about a mile and a quarter. For reference, it pulled harder at 130 mph than the MS3 does at 100 mph.

RE: max speed
p.s. If you do go for it, do it when the sun is out so you can actually see. Don't be a moron. If you hit anything going that fast you might not even know about it.

yeah i know daylight is better, u can see the cops and if they're hidden i got radar/laser detector. hahaha it saved me like 5 times. On some instances i was above leagal, heard it "cop beep", i slowed down, on other instances I was about to accelerate, heard the "cop beep", I didnt go for it. other beeps are for constructions, traffice lights and garage doors hehehe they set off my detector, but not if i press a button.
