    Yes. Do a search. The GTP's tires limit the speed of the car to ~115MPH/185km/h. The GT's tires have a higher limit on speed.

        So for kicks I emailed GM and asked them about it. Heres your typical GM answer:

        Thank you for your recent email.

          I like that one. It's like this: "Thank you for your e-mail. We can't explain it, so we won't. Have a good day!"

          They could have been a little bit more specific.

                        Top Speed

                        I have the GT trim. Thus far my top speed was 225km/hr and still had some room to go. Currently in the works of reprogramming ECU, adding cat back exhaust and Michelin Pilot Sport tires on Motegi dv5 rims.. So i expect all those things will make the 200 km/hr mark quicker to achieve. Stock GT tires are V rated.
