Both Verts...plenty of blasts to 120, a couple up to 135, and once touched 140. That was enough on a less than smooth/straight highway. 
Car was stabile (Kenny Brown Double Diamond Subframes). What a blast. The wind goes way over your head fine but that ripping wind sound is truley wicked!
I'm surprised some don't remember hearing anything? For me the wind gets exponentially louder from 90-120.. maybe then we just kind of go deaf while our knuckles turn white! Or the air pressure drops in the cabin - last time it seemed like the air was starting to get sucked out of the car over 130. Maybe that's why... I think my ears may have popped (like on a plane) but, pretty busy keeping it aimed to really remember.
Ummm...Roll bar is in now.

97 F-body 140 Top Down Very Windy Completely Stock Car Felt Very Unstable Over Slight Differences In Road Like Small Creek Brides And Such After Modifications Never Been Over 120 Like The Faster 0-60 Not The Top Speed
135 with the top down...on a road that was anything but smooth.....but it held to the pavement pretty well....it is sorta scary going that fast with it down tho...at least i think it is

With my 2002 WS6, convertible. I get buck 30 with no qualms what so ever, just tooooo easy
Last year, I maxxed her out, with the top down, I know my tyres are good, etc, made sure there was no junk to fly out, and it was very early on a Sunday morning on a long, long, strait 3 lane highway
Even then I was very pleased with the stability.
I am not going to say what she maxxed out at, but she is a low miles hussy, and you all know what a good motor will do.

140+ here, playing with an SRT8 Charger late at night on the way to SEMA week in Vegas...
Pretty stable, top was down but had windows up and not really that bad, but definitely not something I plan on doing too often.
