ml 430 99 going 116 mph

me and my friend which is the owner of the car , were doing 116 mph on the highway thur nite. they say the limiter is at 113....but we were also going down hill so tht was some extra force.......wondering how fast did you guys go in ure ml's.....they are pretty big cars but they can kick for there size !!!

The fastest I've been in my ML350 is 132. I think the limiter is at 140.

Never took my ML430 over 100 that I recall. Not a big fan of SUV + high speed. The E, however feels pretty stable at 155.

I call ... I was in a '08 ML320CDI on the autobahn for a week and I can tell you for a fact that car won't go 145MPH.

140 in the ML55, had more room to go just decided to back off. Really wonder if it would hit the 147 limiter, 02-03 had a 155mph limiter but 00-01 had 147 limiter for whatever reason.
