I hit 140 on my GS-R before. However, when you're going that high, you need exponential power to go higher. Aerodynamic and drag coefficient plays the biggest role in top speed and the soft top of a S2000 doesn't help any either. With the NSX, the top speed is only 163 or 168. This is due mainly to the drag coefficient of the NSX being (if i remember right) .33 .
