I saw the opportunity to test the top speed of my car yesterday, and reached 192 km/h (120 mph) real speed. Thanks to those extra horses and some aerodynamic changes.

This summer there will be another 'test' with the removed roof rails, the improved rear bumper, tires at 45 psi (instead of the current 36) and some higher temperatures/better wheather conditions. In addition to that 90 MPG mark, it would also be nice to hit 200 km/h (125 mph) with the three-cylinder diesel. Although, it's not easy to overcome another 5 mph at those speeds ...
