200 mph speedo

I was wondering if anyone has a source for a 200mph speedo for the w210 E55. When I remove the speed limiter with the powerchip (stock 155mph), how will I know how fast I can actually go?

Ask a cop. They have state-of-the-art equipment. It should be more accurate than a 200mph speedo.

Ha! That's pretty funny but on the serious side, I have a Garmin Nuvi 660 portable navi system and it tells you our MPH. Raffie, you may borrow mine if you want to test it out...

They were over $1000 bucks 6 months ago and we bought 15 of them for our fleet trucks at $799ea. Now their down to about $550 bucks: http://buyeretail.com/product.asp?fi...u=010-00540-00

This thing is awesome and the newer 670 has NA and Euro maps.
