        my 3.8L M5 pulls to 250kph with authority, then just sits there with almost 1,000 rpm left!

        I hear with the governer removed they will do a max of 173mph


        oh and not to rub it in or anything, but i regularly do 220-240kph just to, you know, let the car unwind....

          Ive only had my e30 up to 135mph with only about like 700 rpms shy of the redline so i think it'll only do 140mph with the 3.73 rear end..it was still pullin like a madman but i came up on traffic and had to slow down

            I've been in a 750il that's gone faster than 173. So....I dunno why that car would be faster than an M5.

                  The 750s have pretty tall gearing for "ze autobahn". I took a stock '92 750il up to the 155mph governor a few years ago and it still had alot left in it.

                    Jonathon, great pic of the two M3's. Wasn't that from an M3 magazine article from the late 80's?

                      I forget the origin of it but it looks like an old BMW factory photo used for promotion. I got the one for my sig here.

                        Man, this thread is old, and really has been bumped like 3 times.

                        Eh well, just for kicks Ive only gotten my 318is up to 115. I dont do much highway driving and rarely have the opportunity to do a high speed run. Besides its a 318, not much fun above 100.
