Heres an M5 an about 187 MPH, thats just over 300 KPH. I'm sure we can get an F-Car to top that!Upload

Needless to say, thats with an upgraded chip that removes the 155MPH speed limiter.

Braking at that speed is scary as hell! Never had to hit the brakes too hard luckily.

Im sure a Ferrari would be more stable at that speed.

I reached 290 km/h several times... (Germany) The steering come more light but the handling is still very good. Sometimes I must brake very hard at this kind of speed because I am not alone on the road, and the car is very effective.

I think Fcar can reach this kind of speed without any problem...

I managed 265kmh (165mph) in my M5 in Germany. My car is normally limited to 155mph but i've had a chip fitted which gives the extra mph.

I found that over 155 the car got a little less stable, with the steering lighter and the wind noise rose too. I can see why they limited the speed.

I'd show you a picture but I was too busy driving the car!!!

It's like saying you just had a hole in one; you need proof. 240 km/h on the German Autobahn. Could go faster, but there was no room left !
