I like how someone can say only and 184MPH in the same sentence......

The ZL1 Camaro has wider tires and other attributes which results in higher drag reducing its top speed. Also the ZL1 Camaro does 180MPH at 5,200rpms (manual transmission car) though I wouldn't be shocked to see them easily beating 180MPH in the right condition. Also its possible that it is electronically limited to 180MPH for manual and 184MPH for auto. Not something that a little more power won't fix though, give it 700BHP and watch 180MPH fall..
