Only been to 130mph on account of the severe "stunt driving" penalty for 32mph+ over the speed limit in Ontario. Up to $10K fine, loss of license up to 2 years & jail up to 6 months etc..

only have 1100 miles on a new e550 cab, 115 comes up real quick 
Once the snow birds go home I'll be able to give it a go, although i think I'm limited to 135 because its a convertible ?

Our cars are very areodynamic. Everytime you double your speed your wind resistance increases eight fold. Basically the w211 cuts the air better than almost any car on the road and that allows for insane top speeds of a reported 203mph plus with basic bolt ons and some tuning.
W211 drag co is .26
An Enzo is .36 to put it in perspective.

I need to reseach this.

One of these days I gotta go find a texas mile or something similar that isn't across the country from me... cuz sure as hell I shouldn't be reading threads like this before heading out on a roadtrip, as is currently planned. You guys are a baaaaad influence.
