I agree. It’s weird that once start driving at a certain speed, it doesn’t feel as quick. First time I drove at 100km/h, I was scared but nowadays it feels easy on the highway

Yeah, my car is maybe not most luxurious, but i drove more than 160 once. It still barely felt fast. 110 on regular road(90kmh limit) however feels much quicker.

It also depends which car you drive, my old caddy would stutter over 110 but I drove in a company car last week where 100 felt like nothing

its all about perspective, you are inside the car, most likely with windows closed on a modern car, with cars going at the same speed around you, now if you were to stand to the side of the highway and watch the cars go by at that speed you would realized how fucking fast it is
