A US model may have a >speed limiter because of all-season tyres. No limiters in the USA... all the cars come with tires rated for the maximum speed of the car. My all seasons are speed rated as "W" which is 186mph, IIRC. The USA NG900 2.0 turbo topped out due to drag somewhere around 147mph when Saab ran them at Talledega in endurance testing. I have not seen a top end on the 230hp Viggen, although 155 does not sound at all unreasonable considering that the NG900 only had 185hp stock. Bob
