Ford Fiesta Top speed?

I'm guessing he doesn't have the turbo model.
I drove a '91 MR2 turbo with a manual trans in high school a few times and that baby was quick! If I remember right they ran in the 14's for a 1320 stock and I had it up around 135-140 on a back highway. 75 is the fastest I've had mine...interstate speed limit and I have less than 1k miles on the car.
Folks,
I certainly hope everyone is testing out the top speed on the track and not on public roadways...

Actually, there have been cases where police have charged people with dangerous driving after they posted stuff on the internet (see link). It may not necessarily be police reading what people have done -- it may be other people reading the forum and realizing that the person is being a danger to the general public.

I'm sure all the results being posted here were done on private roads.
had a little bit of open road with the gf in hers the otehr day. did just over 100, let out bc we were coming up on our offramp. honestly. id say a stock one would do 115ish.
and to all the people breaking in their cars. i did 135mph with 12miles on my 08 mustang. it was fullbolt ons in 2 weeks with less than 500miles. was making 440whp @ 1k miles. had prob 20 passes down teh track by that time.
i still to this day at 62k miles have perfect compression and no issues

Actually had the Fiesta on a closed track loop the other weekend when we had out spot of warmer weather here in PA (it hit like 40 ). The Fiesta did 90 pretty effortlessly on the one straight and took the corners great even with the still stock suspension. Wife was impressed with the feel. I might have had it pushing 100 once or twice; ran out of room too fast on the one straight stretch. The electronic limiter is probably set to 110-115mph like it is on most standard consumption Ford products.

Even in Chicago, the average median speed is 70 MPH + so I understand. a lot of posts are in the 90+ MPH range; I don't think you can go that fast in rush hour traffic.
i was in germany with a friend he took me to the autobahn. i was still getting passed and i was at 110. crazy germans.
You're in good company with Burma and Liberia as the only three countries that still can't get their act together with regards to the metric system!

Which track?? Just curious since I live in the Phoenix area. I would guess FIR Main since it has a half-mile long straight.its limited to 118 mph. I found this out at a track in PHX

Probably not quite fair to say it's "limited" to 118. From the looks of the tach, I'd say it's probably bumping against the red line.

Wow! I have only run up to about 95 to pass. I was impressed though, It really feels smooth at speed.
Yeah, that baby is well on it's way to the buried position!
