All the reviews ive read said that it tops out at about 150. close enough..
Still they managed to get it up there and lived.. so im sure its not going to spontaneously combust or disassemble at that speed

remember an early rally this year where solberg hit a ditch and the whole truck lid was ripped off.

and the rest of stage (and a couple more before the repair stage) the car was mishandling.

granted he wasnt going 155... but still.

Subarus were not made for extended cruising at high speeds. They're not even GT class cars, it's a rally car. I've had my WRX upto about 150 and the engine sounded like it was going to blow up if I kept it up any longer than 30secs.
