Do you think I could that in the M6 ?

According to Speedo he’s going over 180+ mph

isn’t it amazing how stable the compact SUV X3M remains at these high speeds? truly amazing german engineering.

I love my X3MC, but that Audi is a serious autobahn cruiser..

Looked like a typical day on the M40 if I'm honest....

German cars for german roads!

Yeah, that was killing me. Mine was already squirrely with winters at 200,and I couldn't imagine distracting myself with a watch at that speed.

Dont you have to pay 2K+ to get the speed limiter removed from the 155 to 177mph?
Part of yet another pack??

MMJD · 12-01-2019, 02:59 AM

Met him, didn’t prove anything though... just a high speed pointless video.

X3M40i_Nev · 12-01-2019, 04:01 AM

Apart from the fact the RS6 clearly has the legs, pretty fast and stable ride at that speed in X3M. But agree, not really proving anything.

Yes, you do in the US. My guess is the German versions come fully unlocked, albeit even a raised limited us spec couldn't exceed 270 kmph; these guys hit 300.

I'm getting old, that seems way too fast. I was on the autobahn last year and didn't go much above 160km, although I was driving a Volvo V90 rental car with all season tires. That's when you need the big summer tyres.
What a great road trip from Munich to Northern Italy, simply beautiful.

Can't wait to go back. Spent some time up at the Alpina Dolomities Lodge.
Highly recommended if you are out that way.
