1) 187mph - 2007 Z51 Vette, had to let off, really wanted to top 190
2) 172mph - 2005 Kawasaki 636 (indicated)
3) 169mph - 2016 Camaro 2SS A8

I don't remember the exact speeds over the years but I've been 150+ in many other cars.

-2003 Dodge SRT-4 (160's)
-2005 GTO (160's)
-2003 Saab 9-3 (150's)
-1987 Mustang Convertible (150's??) speedo went to 140mph and I buried it past that for a little while with the top down.

Pretty much every car I drive gets taken to the limit so there's been too many 120-140's to even think about.
I got to 118 in my 2013 Cruze 1.4turbo but that took a long time.

Can't be limited at 165, hit 172 this afternoon. Douche in a BMW wanted to go on a very short 2 lane near the shop. I have a problem backing down...I can't do it, no matter how stupid and crappy the conditions.

Been working on my impulse control for longer than I want to admit.

One of my friends had a 954 and outran my other buddy's car 1000rr on a group ride......and the 954 was +1! Those bikes were no jokes!

182 mph - 07 Suzuki Hayabusa
165 mph - 13 Camaro ZL1

130+ on the track in my '16. could have gone faster being that the car still felt well composed, but at the point the car had more balls than I did.

It's obviously not limited but the magazines all said that it was, from what I was seeing they said the coupe was limited to 165 and the convertible is 155.

Driving within one's own "comfort zone" isn't a matter of being PC, it's just good common sense. Even on a road course at an HPDE track day. For some people, including Camaro owners, maybe that zone ends at around 110 mph.

I did a ride-along at RPDE/Las Vegas that got up to around 160, maybe 165 down the straights. That wasn't nearly as impressive or interesting as the lower speeds held through the turns.

fastest is 171 in my ss, it feels like it had more but I didn't haha. 170 is plenty fast for me. does anyone know what the ss is limited at?

[Norm Peterson]

I ran a few acceleration simulations (a pretty decent spreadsheet that I've been tinkering with for a very long time that considers lots of different things) and ended up with 171 for a 5th gen non-1LE SS. Your 6th gen is probably good for a couple, maybe 3 mph more unless there's a MPH limiter stepping in first.
