BMW argue that their more powerful cars, including those from the "M" stable, are limited to 155MPH.
I know this is cobblers.
What's the fastest you've got out of your E60?

Let me rephrase the initial question I posted:
Hypothetically, outside of a race track, what is the fastest speed your E60 could have been?

My Ride: I have a 2007 Black Sapphire BMW 530i with SMG. It has the auburn interior, has PDC, Sports Package, Premium Package, rear automatic sunshades with manual side sunshades, 35% black tint, Upgraded angeleyes from Angelibrights, and Logic 7 Sound System
Model Year: 2007
145 mph in 2007 530i SMG...closed, secure track! I got scared at 145 so I back off but I felt that I could do more. I do not have a remap or any engine mods besides the RPI scoops. Stock air filter and air box

Sure, 70MPH on a UK motorway in my 530 Diesel...
~167MPH in a BMW X6M at Silverstone racetrack
~180MPH in a Porsche 911 (998) 2S with Sports Chrono Plus and Sports Exhaust system at Santa Pod racetrack
Every time with a seatbelt on ProMed!
How about yourself?
