@AndyJrad0323 That's just how far the speedometer went -- it was probably done in anticipation of the 1979 law requiring reduced read out speedometers to lower driving speeds. I read somewhere that the top speed, with the 258, was around 104 mph, pretty fast by any standard!

I used to have an inline 258 engine. I would never have challenged anyone to a race unless they were on a bicycle.

great old commercial. its depressing to see the top speed of an AMX at 90 mph though.
