It's one of the last pieces of unrestricted Autobahn with almost no traffic.
And it starts 50km from where I live.

I miss the autobahn... at least the stretches were you can avoid traffic and really let it loose. Enjoy every last minute of it

I wonder who has gone the fastest on the M3 post

04S · 03-11-2009, 05:15 AM

Who has gone the fastest on the track is cool.

Who has gone the fastest on the public roads is more than slightly irresponsible. Do we really want to be encouraging people to do that ? I think there is a chance that some people on this forum might take that as a challenge .....

MrHarris · 03-11-2009, 06:34 AM

I hit 160 on the way to SF.

Splinter4784 · 03-11-2009, 05:40 PM

i wouldnt encourage someone to go recklessly fast on the FreeWay but its a reality that when there is an open straighaway with no cars and your driving a 414 horsepower beast that 75% of the people on this forum are going to hit the "M" Button and fly into triple digit speed

Rockclimber · 03-11-2009, 05:55 PM

150 down to 60 and up to 150 again on the highway. 60-150 doesn't take that much time to my surprise. Indicated not GPS

cut2qr · 03-11-2009, 06:44 PM

artur777! · 03-12-2009, 06:06 PM

DrewsBimmer · 04-04-2009, 11:04 PM

sry but u didnt hit 170 on a drag strip theres no way u had enough track to get it up that high but nice try

3s-a-charm · 04-05-2009, 12:39 PM

240 km/h on a country road outside the city (no traffic). Only held it for a few seconds then slowed down to let my heart catch up again. That's 150 mph.

Nik1203 · 04-06-2009, 03:16 PM

331km/h on digital speedometer at 8220g/m on secret menù.

306km/h on gps.

Germany autobahn free speed limit of course

Drag strip? I don't know any drag strips that are long enough to let you top out.

Also, how is it that so many of you are going faster than the electronically limited 155mph?

It's not eletronically limited to 155. I have personally hit the electronic limiter and my car does not have the governor removed and it stops at about 170 ish
