Red C7 (evolution) & speed limiter

I am patiently waiting for my Red C7 (evolution package) and would apreciate some pictures of a magma red C7 if anyone can help.
It is unfortunate that MB north america has chosen to install a speed limiter even with the Z rated tires of the evolution package. Does anyone know how fast it will go with a performance chip installed?

Thanks, BOB! It has C2, C4, C7, as well as a hardwired Radar Detector and CD changer (both installed by me with the generous help of folks on this board)
Cheers,
Josh
