What is the top speed on the Pontiac Grand Am gt?

The top speed of the Pontiac Grand Am GT with the 3400 V6 is approximately 130mph. However, the Grand Am GT shares the same transmission with the 4-cylinder models, and sustaining these speeds will quickly cause permanent damage to internal transmission components. Furthermore, driving at such speeds on public roads is illegal, irresponsible, and can result in incarceration and forfeiture of your vehicle. Also, injuring someone as the result of negligence carries mandatory prison sentences in many states.
