bone stock its significantly more than 150. You need to run with the top up though to improve the CD.

To be honest, it has been proven that our cars speedo is off by as much as 8 mph at those high speeds.

Yes, i was just about to say that. The speed that is stated on the speedometer is likely inaccurate, especially at high high speeds when speedometers are way off. 150 is the quoted top speed from various people who use laser/radar/timetrap instrumentation. Of course it will vary from test to test.
