    In proper conditions, we had the Lancer to now 190km/hr the other day.

    270 would be flying!!!!!

    I dont trust myself at speeds like that. Not yet. Not without driver training. That's for the pro's...

    but then again, Skyline's can push that mark too (270km)

    For an Australian made car around $60k, that is very quick.

    How fast does a stock-standard V6 Commodore go? They'd easily beat 250km/h wouldn't they? Or are they artificially speed-limited?
