0 to 90

Only up to 90 but I taped it. Looks like I hit 60 in 5 seconds and 90 in 10. 2010 E550. Closed course or course.

Did 250 km/h (=156 MPH) in Germany on an Autobahn with an Audi A6 Avant Sports Line with the 3.0 liter TDI. I can only imagine how fast my E550 would go there...

105 mph in my E350 Bluetec. 115 in my S350 Bluetec. In both cases, the diesel was still pulling strong. No doubt that both the E and S Bluetec would have no trouble at all hitting the 130 mph governor. Probably not even breathing that hard.

S213 E450 4Matic, W111 220SE - prior cars: 3x W212, W210 E55 AMG, W202 C43 AMG, W126 300SE

Had a rented W212 E200 CDi to about 110 - slow car, but good mileage. Have had other rentals in Germany only to ~140 or so - I usually am there in October/November, and every car I get has winter tires.

Haven't had my E350 much over 80, but I am still only around 1000 miles on it.

MB’s of all kinds.

100MPH on the highway with no one around. I like to blow out my cars once in a while. Solid ride and very smooth.

'17 C63S Estate (S205) / '14 CLS 550 SB (X218) / '17 E220d (S213)

Actually Ido have to grin a little bit, when reading lines like „100MPH on the highway” or “105 mph in myE350 Bluetec. 115 in my S350 Bluetec.“… Guys, this is normal cruising speedover here! Whenever possible I try to cruise at 120-140mph. You gotta love theAutobahn

.

So whatwas the highest speed I ever hit in my E 550s?
’12 E 550 4matic: 159mph

(make sure to watch in HD)

’08 E 550 T: 159mph

(Video on winter tires - so the limiter was set to 240km/h)

Note:
100km/h = 62mph
200km/h = 125mph
250km/h= 155mph
Limiterkicks in at 256km/h = 159mph

HighestSpeed ever attained was in my Corvette C5: 188mph
