135. I didnt feel the need to try to go any faster. Pretty noisy and blustery. Isnt a true 150MPH redlining in a 2004+.

It isn't the number that you see on the speedo that is the fun part, it is the heavy braking as you dive into a corner when you drop from 130 to 60, downshifting twice and feeling the car just almost get unbalanced before settling in and heading towards the apex.

Straight roads are boring no matter how fast you drive.
