I had my US market 08 350 to 133mph (GPS measured) on the A3 southeast of Frankfurt. The governor must have triggered because the throttle cut back almost like there was a fuel supply problem. I dropped back to 110 after that.

back

136 i get to it all the time now, I found a great place... not even saying where... lol but the govener kicks in i feel it, so usually come back to 130 and cruise... feels like 70, the area has a little drift and going around it you really can not tell you are going that speed.. just letting you know....

I am not a fast driver in reg traffic, i am actually a slow driver, but in conditions like the one I found I feel its safe, there are not any other cars, so if someone gets hurt its me. ha
great

ok

mercedes benz 2008 c 300 sport sedan
my friend is a beast when it comes to cars and me and him spent 1 week taking apart this car just for fun and we ended up taking the governor off. I have no idea how he did it im not very smart when it comes to cars, all i know is i have had it 166 andi passed a cop, so i had to stop accelerating. I dont know if that is normal or not, but it was sweet!
