168 on Road Angel, off clock on speedo en route from Frankfurt to Munich at about 2am. Don't other vehicles come up fast!

i've seen 165 on my s4 and my pals shown me 175 in his 540bhp rs6, he also showed me 180 in a cerbera, felt much safer in the rs6 the growler wasn't so loud.

Now that certainly felt fast :shock: :dung:

So there we were travelling at 14 miles per minute with a visual horizon of about 3 or 4 miles (15 seconds ahead) and all of a sudden a fishing boat appears directly in front......... sh*t too late and you've just dropped a 'boom' on some poor chap. I wasnt the driver but Ive felt pretty guilty ever since :(

much more pedestrian 250km/h (155mph) in the S4 on the A3 in Deutschland :)
Yep you make me sick. Did about 450 in a Hawk a few times. Went vertical but haven't a clue what the speed was as my face was glued to the artificial horizon due to the G force. Never beaten that sensation since.

180ish (things were blurry) on my ZX9
BMW 540i
2018 GTR
F90 M5
X3MC

RS7 FL best car I've owned. No faith in turbo oil screen (turbos failing) or sticking oil scraper ring causing missfires.
F10 M5 LCI still no rear grip lol
S7 black Edition Too big and heavy
S3 8V FL DSG 310ps, road noise is a joke
RS3 8P Rubbish
C7 RS6 Fantastic car but missed playing
GTR R35 800bhp, too extreme, crazy fast though
911 Turbo Remapped. Hated it
F10 M5, awesome but no rear grip
RS6 V10 700BHP crazy
Porsche Cayenne Turbo S 600bhp
