75% cruise is 464mph, push it to max and you are at 500.

But you would have to be nuts to push that hard since the engine rebuilds are so pricey.

Push the X model to max and you are at 700mph...close to mach 1.

I know what the book says, and then I know what my 3000 hrs flying the C-501, C-551, C-550, S-II and Bravo variants, says.

The Bravo is a Citation II with larger engines, and it will go a bit faster. Cost more, though.
