I'd guess that the Camaro's top speed will be electronically limited before 186. They won't ship it able to exceed the speed rating of whatever tires come on it, though maybe uplevel Camaros will come with high-rated tires.
Tires should not be an issue. As we saw in the spyshots, the base V8 will likely have fat Pirelli PZero tires, the same used on 215mph Lambos. Oh and realisticly, the V6's top speed will probably be around 150mph. Though the base V8 should get to 175+mph
