Bs?

My friend, who has a 1995 accord EX 4cycl. said that he max out at 135 mph with 4 of his friend in the car. I think that he is telling the truth about going 135 but I think that his speedometer is lying to him. Accord's speedometer is inaccurate at highspeed. If the speedometer says he is going at 135, then he actual speed is like 125. I have looked up the 1995 accord specs and the max speed is around 125mph not 135. What do you think? Btw, does anyone know a good site with detailed specs like top speed and 1/4? Thanks for your time.

I doubt that he was actually able to do 135 with four people in the car unless he's done some significant modifications to the car.

You can try http://www.car-stats.com/stats/default.aspx for some stats

No mods. He is bone stock. Btw, can you explain why 4 people in the car kill top speeds? I used to think that a car with 4 peeps will reach top speed but more slowly.
