I am the driver ! I don't let BMW or anybody else take control. I told my dealer that I'll buy the car, but only if the speedlimiter is deactivated.

But I tell you what...
Aftre reaching 240 Km/h the speed scared the living sh*t out of me.
Usually I just drive up to 230 Km/h - fast enough on public roads.

Being in Singapore we don't have the roads, (or guts) police everywhere, 40km/h over the limt and it's a night at the local jail.

Fastest I've gone in the E60....150km/h...ok don't laugh <_<

BTW, I was in Shanghai last week, took that new Meglev train to the airport , it hit 431km/h

That's the fastest I've ever gone on the ground anywhere

Technically, you weren't on the ground!
