You have to consider that if you bought your car used, your car may have had a tune and removed the limiter. Otherwise, the car is limited from factory.

If I'm not mistaken (at least for the E-Class W211), the cars are limited to 130mph due to some US restriction, and I thought this was standard for all MB cars. I thought how ironic this would be for AMG's but thought that all MB's coming to the US are 130 mph restricted. Am I wrong?
