They allow higher limits on Euro spec cars. Euro M3s can go up to 174 mph.

Mine had a speed limiter which pissed me off big time my car only does about 230 km/h about 143 mph. Oh well, I may never use that speed again. This was during my European Delivery.

I may or may not have gone 155 mph
Although I would guess that, were I to have ever gone that fast in this particular car, it would still have plenty of power left. Though this car isn't made for high speeds..

I was heavly modded (minus meth and lsd), but I still had nothing on a C63 at those speeds. Lower end was a different story, but after speeds 130+, that damn C63 does not stop pulling..

But it is something you may want to experience Just make sure it's a wide, big empty freeway When going towards Irvine, there's a stretch of (if I remember correctly, it's been a while) of 6 lanes on each side, with perfect concrete and road and you can see for miles and miles. But it's been a while since I've been down there..
