Wtf......when I was younger I went 118mph in a 77 Volare with a 318. These cars are more then capable of high speeds with no issues. Now that Volare was a trip.

Limited to 155mph. Doubtful you'll reach it without mods or going downhill.
Mine felt like I was flogging it to hit 139 before the Overkill tune. (best $500.00 Mod I've ever done)

My 2011 with Trifecta tune. I had hit 155 before, but didn't film it. This time (after getting the camera ready) I just ran out of track before hitting top speed.

However, if you're talking about the domestics, well the V6 Camaro can hold it's own unless it's a SRT8, CTS-V, ATS-V or Impala SS. If you're talking about the import V6's like the Camry, Maxima /Altima and Hyundai and Honda models, the little Camaro V6 can hold its own with them too. To say the V6 is not a performance car is being less than honest. The V6 offers performance only available on high performance V8 cars less than a decade earlier. We are just spoiled by the unbelievable supercar-like capability now available with today's V8's. |

I read in car and driver or road and track, one of those two, where they removed the limiter on the V-6 RS, V-8 SS, and the ZL1 to find the terminal speed on the different Camaro models. The RS package V-6 was 162, SS V-8 was 175, and the ZL1 was 191. Very impressive in all stock trim.

156 limited I think.
I installed Hex Vents in the Hood for a better every-day driving experience with less front end Float at normal high speeds :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Not sure I understand the "Front end float" or getting light. My car is very stable and confidant at speed.
