Well then how about renting some time at a racetrack? 200mph on freeways is more than slightly irresponsible.

Or take it to Germany for a trip on the Autobaun. If you can afford the car, you should be able to afford to ship it over there for your 200mph vacation.

Bill Cosby spoke about 200mph. I hear his Shelby Cobra scared him so much; he parked it.

BTW: The History Channel had a show on the Autobaun last weekend. They had a Porsche with a two man camera crew crammed into it. They were doing 212MPH... at night!

Sweet road though. 27inches of rod bed; meticulously maintained, less than a 7% grade change, and long sweeping turns (long straight lines lull you to sleep). And a drivers license requires personal training, and the license itself is about $1500 dollars. Tailgating can bring a $20K fine. Yep, you read that correctly. 20 thousand dollar fine for tailgating!

Thant, and drivers over there don’t eat, drink or text message while on the road. That’s why Americans are looked at as some of the worst drivers in the world. US car buyers bitch about a lack of cupholders in European cars, Wuropeans wonder why there should be any.
