Wow if these V6s can reach those speeds I can imagine the speeds my GXP will go. I know even my Aurora with 4.0 seems to want to go at tripple digit speeds but at her age I would never do it.
V6 Bonnevilles going 155....?
Kia Optimas going 139 mph....? Wow
Those are some fast speeds.

topped out at 108mph again today 
, it is so frusterating hitting that rev limiter!!!!!!
on the bright side i was supprised to see how stable my car is at that speed
probably my 225/50/r16 tires, o well i am still proud of my bonne, it only took like 10 minutes to get up to that speed, so atleast i have some acceleration......lol
