Alot of 2 stage compressors also pump up to higher psi's. I did say alot, not all though.

It's pretty common to see a 2 stage that pumps up to 175psi.

I have a single stage 135psi 60gal 220v, from Home Depot. It was a good price, and can pretty much run any tool I have in the garage, so long as it's just one person running a tool at a time.
