O yea, I`ve been there. I have one of the best autobaun cars, a bmw 850i. But our drivers here are not the brightest, and speed and stupidity does not mix. People just don`t understand speed here unless they are running from the law and weaving in and out of traffic. A couple of years ago I was speeding on the interstate in the left lane and had a car merging on from the on ramp, he then came all the way to the left lane for no reason, I about ran into him, that stoped me from speeding anymore.

well what you heard or read is correct that goes top speed of 155 however that's a "tested" but I have a Z rated tires, i have gone a bit over 135 and it's pretty incredible but it cuts off, since EPA and car being sold in the US has a requirement that all car manufactured and sold in the US has to have a governor install on it where most cars will start to cut in and out around 120 to 135 depending on the car manufacture.

The non-AMG W211 is limited to 130mph FLAT. It WILL push to a higher speed on the first time to 130 (mine runs to 134), then it will slowly trickle down to 130 and hold it there forever and ever. That's when you go visit Powerchip, who will promptly remedy the "problem" 
You don't know what you're talking about.
Your buddy is bragging about his fantasies.
