How fast?

What's the top speed you've actually reached in your M? I hit 179 on the digital readout in my E90.
Anyone else touch ludicrous speed?

165, and don't want to go above that. There is nowhere to really do it.

To clarify, I never designated that this was illegally done on the streets. For all we know all speeds posted were done on a track. No reason to say one way or the other. I'm just curious to see who has really pushed the car.

Lots of us have pushed the car at the track. Most don't allow ridiculous top speed as straights won't allow.

Ps. Was it your car on another video you posted, going flat out, with good accelleration still over 300km/h? Thought I heard some yanks chat in the background so wasn't sure?

Ps.Ps. seems people are crazy careful with the pedal on this forum - thought it was for M3 folks...?

It's no joke , very loud wind noise , and insects and bugs hitting the windshield ,think had some big moths just in front of my face , they are almost smale explosions on the windshield , and when dark it's scary shit man !
Next morning my car was no longer SSII , but matte black on the front bumper,I had even insects on side windows !
///M3 is a real insect magnet !

Think this was the video....not for pussy's !
