It'll go faster than that, you just gotta stay with it for a looong time. Mine had a 5 speed though, but I think the final drive gear ratios are pretty close.



123mph according to the GPS, the speedo stopped at about 115.

I've had 3 geo/chevy Prizms, 1995, 1999, and 2001, and a 1999 corolla. The prizm's were all 5 speeds and the 1999 and 2001 could hit about 115+, and the 1999 corolla was a THREE speed auto, and I pinned it at over 110. That 3 speed actually felt faster than the 5 speed's, but the manuals were so much more fun.

Why did I have so many? I bought more exciting cars and they broke so I always went back to corollas. The 1999 prizm had close to 400k miles when I sold her.

Now I have a fiesta st so I don't qualify anymore for this thread.

Now my girlfriends 2004 Hyundai Elantra auto might be the most boring car I've ever driven. It has a floaty buick like suspension in the body of a compact.
