This is probably just academic, but after watching an unnamed British car show reviewing an Aston Martin, it was mentioned that it had a 99mph speed limit with the top up. It got me wondering if there's a similar speed limit on our convertibles as well. I've been to 145 on a racetrack with the top down, but now I'm curious if the wind would've ripped it apart if I'd tried it with the top up. The only limits I can find discussed in the owner's manual relate to failures in the tires, suspension or traction control systems. Is it essentially certified to the stock C5 top speed of 175mph?
