Freeway driving

Just curious how fast you guys have been in your Smart. I was on I285 last week and the traffic was pretty light. I got up to almost 90 and the car felt unexpectedly solid and smooth but that was about all she had. I topped out at around 88 but then got into some traffic.
Does anyone here use their Smart regularly on the freeway and what speeds can you keep up for extended periods?

I have been in my dad's when he got it up over 85, not sure but may have been over 90. Still felt solid.
