My Nissan topped out at 115-120.
Book said 158 on my Z, lost my nerve at 145 with about 800 rpms left to redline. Couldn't get the thought of a deer stepping out 1/2 mile in front of me and taking the top off along with my head

This past June I did 127 mph in a 1998 Volkswagen Jetta. Just outside of Toronto, CA on their QEW going North from Buffalo.
Spedometer on the Jetta says 140 but have never redlined it. Not bad for a 4 cyl Kraut efficiency car.
