A practical speed of 160 mph (257 km/hr) has been reported, and "flat out", it will do about 186 mph (300 km/hr).

For 2010, the 5.4 liter DOHC has been increased to 540 horsepower, with a redline of 6250 RPM. The fifth and sixth gears have ratios of .74 and .50, down from .84 and .63, so the top speeds may increase accordingly.

The GT500 has a 6 speed gearbox, and easily reaches speeds in excess of 170 mph (274 kph).

FHP clocked a stock 08 GT500 at 158 and they weren't all the way down on the gas. This thing still had room to stretch it's legs.
