I have a 4cyl sedan I have hit 130 mph in 5th gear and still did not hit the limiter. So on a V6 i would expect it to go a little higher than that.

you'll hit the rev limiter around 6500RPMs. its real easy to hit if you have a manual, or if you leave it in park and floor it. but you don't want to do either.

I don't think it has a speed limiter on the 6th Gen Accords, but yeah, you'll hit the rev limiter eventually.....I was going downhill once in my Accord and it's manual and i hit 142.....but it was struggling. Nice attempt on the 350z, they only have like 120 more hp than your car, no biggie, lol.

It's true that Accords have rev-limiters, but that will not determine your top speed. The top speed is limited by an electronic governer which should limit you to about 130mph if I'm not mistaking.
