Top speed??

So I was just seeing how fast I can go. I have a 07 335i sedan. I got to 135mph and then it just like stopped but I could feel that the engine wants to keep going. Has anyone got over 135mph. The governer is set at 135?

You'll need more power to get above 180 - one point twenty one jiggawatts, I believe.

I did 120 in the test drive for the 335d the other day and it was very calm. felt like an old timy Caddy.

It had a lot more legs to go.........

I don't know if it had a governer, but I'd need to know one to get a parden!

+1

however, if you get a Dinan flash I believe it removes the top speed limiter.

Same governor as the 335i (135 no ZSP, 155 with ZSP).

The reason is because the ZSP-equipped cars come with tires designed for higher speeds. The non-ZSP tires can be dangerous at those higher speeds.

Hmmmm...You just said you don't plan to speed. Now you want to go faster than 135. I hope you're doing this on the track.

My oil burner hit 171 on Autobahn last week before traffic interrupted. Got to love the Germans for their cars and roads...
