I thought the 545i has a speed limiter at 155MPH. Did you have the dealer remove the limiter?

Hey iceman,? 170 and it felt solid as a rock huh.? I did 155 and the front felt really light,? it's either our roads are not as smooth (autobahn is concrete right) or my ride needs an adjustment.

I said it felt a little lighter at the front, but was still solid.
It was noticeable that it was lighter, but only a little bit.
Maybe the weight is helping me a little bit here. Because I have all options, so there are a couple things in my car, that are missing in yours...

ICEMAN, What did you do to un-limit the 155mph? It does not affect us in US anyway. Like the other guys said, you'd get handcuffed, and your car towed if you drive over 100mph here.

Car in US should be limited to 95mph or so.

If we, coming from other countries, and meet you guys in Germany, language is going to be the problem? I know those of you has "Location : Germany" writing English extremely well, but speaking is the same, too? . Just curious.

The most who have location Germany in their profile are somehow related to the US military.
Just a couple of us aren't.
Anyways, they teach us English in school from the very beginning. I had English, French, Russian, Greek and Latin - English and French for 12 years. I was teached English before starting to write or read German...
So, whoever you meet over here can speek English. Just the French refuse to do so, but they actually can...
