Yeah, 90Ks/hour is 55Ms/hour
My first car is a Honda accord 95 Modal, very nice car, I remember when I pushed it passed its limits on the tires, it was the scaryest moment of my life, specially since it was on an empty back road.
Got new tires, much much better, no cheap ****, much much safer and I actually find the actual limit of the car and tires to be about even now (hehehe so we all know what that means)
If I can just make one sugestion about having a car, Get the best bloody tires you can possibly afford, and go above the recommended limits of the tires. I have a set of pirrelies (Can't spell the bugger) anywho, they are rated higher then the cars required speed and grip the road in the wet like the water isn't even there (Not that I drive as such of course)
The reason I recommend this is because when it all comes down too it, you can have middle range brakes, on a crappy car, but when it comes down too it, the tires will be the defining factor of hitting a padestrian or stopping in just in time.
Lots of people will say its both the tires and brakes and also the car its self, and in many ways they are right, but you can have the best car in the world with the best brakes but crummy tires, see how far they go
Plus as an added bonus hehehe, I can go flying down the old princess highway during the middle of the night, doing 90 and I don't even push ma tires hehehe
OH btw, I don't recommend nore incurrage you to do as I do.
Oh and do a course in defensive driving I did it and a few others after it, and it really really teaches you the capabilitys of your car and teaches you how to handle it!
