Since you have the RS, you can top out at 155 mph with the governor.

It depends on the tires,The standard 18" are 118 mph. The Pirelli P Zeros 20" are much higher,150mph I think.

I dont see like 95% of V6 owners ever going above 120mph. SS though i could see getting 130+ a few times.

Did the fuel shutoff or did it just stop going? Also what gear and rpm were you at?

When it hits 157 the governor kits in an prevents you from accelerating anymore. I was in 6th gear, but I don't remember what rpm.
