M Drivers Package speed limiter...is there

I ticked the M drivers package box when buying my M3 and this got me a raised speed limiter (280 km/h) and Advanced M training voucher. I didn't take advantage of either of these for a while as I was waiting for my car get some run in miles. The other day I had a chance to verify the speed limit raise (I was secretly hoping they've removed it altogether but to no avail). It wouldn't pull more than 286 km/h on the digital readout. Slightly bored as I wanted to touch 300 but still a good experience.

p.s. the fuel needle really drops at these sorts of speeds, I mean properly dives

I think that I came close to my limiter. It is supposed to be limited to 161mph, and I got 168mph on the digital readout.
