I don't know about the rest of you, but my car hit 120 easily. I have the Zetec. I could have gone faster but was amazed how fast I was going in the first place. eek But the engine felt like it could go much higher. Wouldn't suprise me. All contours are drag limited to 143. Isn't that fast enough???? confused

Wrong. 143mph is the official top speed for a stock SVT.

Reg. Duratecs and Zetec top speed, I haven't a clue.

But I would think a reg. Duratec would have a top speed of about 135-140mph tops, and a Zetec, who knows, 125mph? That accurate?

Wahhh, somebody is a little sensitive, especially for someone who uses sarcasm as humor.

LiLMan - you have a Zetec.

You will never have an SVT. I called every dealer in the states and told them not to sell a car to you Pinnochio....
