It's probably close to 160-165mph mark, but you would need a whole lot of tarmac to get there. Air is like a thick soup once you get to those speeds. Your rate of return deminishes as you go faster. 332hp won't get you more than those speeds with the aerodynamics of the Z. If it makes you feel better, speed is relative and technically speaking, the Z is spinning at a rate of 700-1000mph standing still due to the Earth's rotation.....or try it out in Gran Turismo
