Quite a few performance cars been around lately with weird top speeds. I remember when the G8 GT came out it had a top speed somewhere in the 130mph range. Pretty weird for a 6.0L LS2 V8 granted it's a 4 door sedan. Gotta be some explaination.

Not really? I think a lot of luxury cars use it, and they typically have enough power to hit 150-160 just fine.
It's the gears probably, 5th tops out at 130something while 6th runs out of breath. 6th might be able to push a little higher but maybe not, so they say it's 138. 6th will top out in the high 160s, which may or may not be possible.
