Top speed

3s4u2 · 05-03-2013, 11:10 AM

Nothing, just had the speed limiter coded out after the warranty expired so I could go run the Texas mile.

m_thompson · 05-03-2013, 11:27 AM

A brief 135 in my 128i on the Autobahn during Euro Delivery. It would easily have gone up to the 155 limit, but it only had a few hundred miles on it.

The other day I was driving on I-95 and the bumps and holes were huge. On autobahn you have strict rules and excellent surface and is much safer to drive 140mph than 80mph on I-95.

Pennsylvania, I feel your pain

I'm from York, 83 is so bad, even with all the new construction going into MD.

A E90 at 145 mph for 20 min on the A63. I had more pedal, but I was in moderate traffic. The opportunity to drive in Germany is the reason that I bought the BMW. If I lived in the states, I would have bought an Acura.

wow.. I bet you were white knuckling it in the SVT Contour.

Me- 145 in a 328 (needle read 151, but figure it's about 6 MPH off) and 140ish in a 335xi... Both cars felt remarkably stable at these speeds.

MidwestGolfBum · 05-03-2013, 11:10 PM

145 in the 335
Indicated 203 C6 Z06
193 05 EVO
189 10 Alpha10 GTR
174 R1

Eurocraze · 05-04-2013, 10:29 AM

164 on my old 05 R6
176 07 R1
115 on the 335i, but i was on snow tires, and...shit got wierd.

and technically speaking, again being technical, "speed" doesnt kill, its"crashes" that can kill or hurt. you dont even need to be speeding to crash. Food for thought....
Somebody made a valid point.. id rather people go 100mph+ and pay attention, then be doin 65-80 and have their head buried in their damn cell phones.

Chris_506 · 05-04-2013, 11:56 AM

137 on my 350z, 159 on my 750 gsxr

manutdas11 · 05-04-2013, 12:56 PM

About 140 mph in my 328i a few years back. Never again.

Navlex67 · 05-04-2013, 03:11 PM

Doesn't matter in NYC it's how fast u can get up in speed to cut slow drivers off so 80- 100 mph after that is good with my 9500xi radar detector ka ||||||| po po oh noooo

VietXtract · 05-05-2013, 08:32 PM

sammy_0559 · 05-05-2013, 10:19 PM

210mph Nissan GTR

and my slow car yeah its been past 160mph but took like 20-30 seconds lol

GMe90 · 05-07-2013, 07:24 AM

115 in my 328i. I didn't realize I was going that fast until I looked at the speedometer. I backed off after that because I was in the city zone, but the car had a lot left. The car was just waking up at 115.
