        Should I be impressed?

        I see an old spec e30 speedo, the most unreliable cluster era (84 - 03/86 - 3 Red S.I Lights)

        Those old clusters are not worth a single penny, the newer spec ones are much more reliable, and have the larger speedo, and a much more accurate tachometer.

        Ah I see you were driving a different car....okay...nice I guess.

              Hum, "old spec" sounds a bit odd. Is that what our cars have turned into? There is V-Spec, A-Spec, Type-R. Guess we have the O-Spec lol.
              Ma che cazzo state dicendo? :|

                  Well at that speed the speedo WILL be off, its designed that way.

                  I've done 138mph in mine verified via GPS, the speedo showed around 146mph.

                  No pictures as I was driving,

                      89' 325is with 5-spd and 4.10LSD , 205/50/15's and no-r3v limit chip .
                      It has indicated slightly higher than 145 many times with 215/40/17's but no pics .

                      I've hit the same indicated speeds when the car was an auto with 5 people in the car and no chip .
                      Pretty sure the rpms were much lower too .

                      E30 M3 / E30 325is / E34 525iT / E34 535i
