Re: Your personal record!!!!

Current mac I've gone is 200 km/h in my Porsche Cayenne S thought that was on the expressway. My M5 the maximum I've gone is 'just' 160 km/h but that is on city roads. I'm just god-smacked when I look down at the HUD and notice the speed I'm going at in such a short moment.

Re: Your personal record!!!!

120km/h - Perodua Kembara

Dad - 160km/h on the Phaeton.

Highways here have limits at best 120km/h. Go figure.

Re: Your personal record!!!!

My record is merely an approximate 200 km/h in the Audi my dad had when I was 18. Wouldn't risk a lengthy driving ban anymore...

Re: Your personal record!!!!

Funny - this is like the automotive equivalent to "How much can you bench?"

Quite possibly, the fastest I've ever gone for a sustained duration is 190km/h in a rental Toyota Yaris.

I was in a panic, and had to get from Osnabrueck to Hamburg and back within the span of about 3 hours. Fortunately, that stretch of the Autobahn wasn't rife with construction as it often is, so I made damn good time.

Re: Your personal record!!!!

140-145 mph in my Z4 in a long sweeping curve where I could see 5 miles in back and 5 miles in front.
Nothing was on the road.
My wife was sleeping in the passenger seat. Oddly the experience was serene.
