Vegas oh yeah!
In Vegas, took the C43 on Thursday - no authority types seemed to be out until I hit the Nevada state line - so through Cali it was quite a run! Me and a S550 clicked along around 120 to 125 for a solid twenty plus minutes! C43 was just happy as a clam humming along and all in all it was kinda boring haha! Nice to know you car can make 125 seem ho-hum! Love the C43! Happy 4th of July all - enjoy and be safe.

I know what you mean. You have to watch your speedo on regular freeways because you can hit 100+ no problem and the car still rides so smooth and you don't realize it haha
My friend said, "your car is smoother at 70 than my wagon is at 20" hahah I love my car

sorry no pics 
I was working a conference and just didn't get out of the hotel much! I'll get a pic up from the drive home - was in some traffic outside of death valley area - 117 degrees and hit 119 at one point - 75 mph + and a/c on - temp needle barely moved above midpoint and I when traffic picked up I was blasting at 90 + and the car ran like a top. Averaged a bit above 25 MPG as well - seriously love this car!
