132 on an empty highway at 10p.m., no side streets and by myself. That was before my lowering kit and suspension. It was very smooth and felt like 60MPH. Lots of pedal left....but I chickened out! Going to give it whirl again soon though!

I had two different rentals and my personal to the speed limiter, all get a bit loose above 135 and a tad spooky around 150.

I think I've hit about 130 or 140, but not very often. I'll do much more than that on a motorcycle, but for some reason, it feels like there's less control in the car. Speed feels "more serious" in the Camaro than on a sportbike. Kinda weird.

Was your Camry recalled? (I know it's a 1998 model. It was irresistible.)
