These were used by the Air Force as chase cars to help the U2 aircraft land. Their landing speed is 160 mph.

Top Gear found the top speed on their runway to be 175.

I once, long ago, hit 146 mph in some sort of Hot Rod. It does not take much of a bump in the road to catch your attention.

The car appeals to me due to the four doors and large trunk. Uh, also the 4.9 part.
