Or completely right. I've driven just about every mile of autobahn highway over the last decade, including 2 planned, scouted high speed runs between Munich and Hamburg - you?
I may have also done that on 280 too. allegedly. the one in Mexico. (note to all: 280 has 8 lanes!)

I also think there is a huge difference between punting a capable car up to 160mph on a lightly trafficked section of AB in good weather and then coming back down to a more sensible speed, than those that would tear on a that speed for mile after mile...that to me isn't sensible and you're likely to find your accident waiting for you.

In germany there is something called „Richtgeschwindigkeit“, a sort of advisory speed. It‘s 80,77mph, 130kmh. Travelling above that speed can bring you into seriös trouble if you‘re involved in an accident. You can be fined although you aren’t the cause of the accident.
I‘m driving regulary at high speed but only on three lane motorways with less traffic. You can‘t underestimate the deltas in speed.

I couldn't find one either, so made do worth the M177, 510PS and 700Nm with the wrong badge up front. Electronically limited to 174mph.
