Just don't lose your head 
(yes I know, I have used that before). Middle East law enforcement rules are kinda draconian if you screw up while driving at high speeds it seems...

Stay safe! At least put on the damn seat belt... maybe then you have a small chance if something goes wrong... maybe 
Remember that a car is a mechanical device and they do break from time to time... blow a tire, a brake line, suspension issue and you are dead. I can't believe you were filming yourself (i.e. not fully attentive to the road) and not wearing a seat belt!!!! Maybe I'm too old and finally realized I wouldn't mind knowing my grand kids

Maybe I am out of touch with what is "cool" these days with AMG owners but I see little value in this sort of thing. IMHO it takes zero if little skill to drive at these speeds in a straight line and endangers others on the road. How about you take it to the track and see what the car can do as far as performance - make a turn or two and see the $ and time AMG spent in the suspension and other performance related areas. Sure, it is cool to drive fast, but should be done in a controlled manner under the best conditions possible. Personally I think throwing a C63 into a corner at 120kmph on the limit of the car and tire performance is more exciting.

So, not many mods then.....fair enough.....just shows you how fast these cars are.
If ya did those speeds in Aus, ya'd end up with jail time, a VERY severe fine, and your car would be impounded......at that speed, I don't know for how long....but I'd suggest it'd be a fair while.
My friend, in Aus, we're limited to 110KPH, so just realize how lucky you are to be able to do what you did......BUT....be careful.
Cheers, Pickles.
