My Car: 2007 Prius Package: #5 Touring Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 0 |  I found this during a Google search (for something else related to Prius). It's a 2004 Prius Bonneville racer and did 134 MPH !! [attachmentid=9371] http://www.caranddriver.com/features/8695/...got-hybrid.html The radio clattered with the timing report. The Prius hit the measured mile at 130 mph, crested 131 a quarter of the way through, and exited the back door around 129. The official speed: 130.794 mph. Thunderstorms rolled in before even larger tires could be tested, but the car went 134.339 with its seams and lower grille taped up, an illegal modification in a production class but okay for a car with no class.
