I'll bet they limit the V6 to around 120 (a stang limiter is set to 117 if I remember correctly) and they will limit the V8 to around 150... remember a speed limiter is more than just about the tires... it is a legal / insurance thing. Could you imagine how expensive your insurance would be if you waltz in with a car with 400+ horsepower and capable of a top speed of 180+!?! Could the Camaro do it... I would be shocked if it could not, but remember they are designing and building this car for the average joe and I can guarantee you that the average joe cannot afford the insurance on a car that is capable of 200mph+.
