Had mine up to 191 to test out my E63 cluster on a empty highway at 3am.. Car felt smooth and controllable.

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 ?

W211 drag co is .26

An Enzo is .36 to put it in perspective.

Wow .26? really that would make it equal then a 1st gen Honda Insight?

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.
