Top speed runs in Germany: Nice !

VirtualGuitars · 03-01-2019, 05:38 PM

Why do these videos always have such crappy music? Love the car though!

mvigod · 03-01-2019, 06:56 PM

You can make pretty good time driving that fast!

M5 was at 300mph and that guy was pulling away and hard?!!!!!

Wow. Ok. I usually dont take time to post but wow. I have a new level of respect for the m5. Running at 300 kph for long stretches. Wow. Kudos to the driver. Passing cars at 300 kph.. must feel like a missile went by for the cars being passed. Abs kicking in at about 200 kmh when braking on a bumpy surface but the car stays straight. The driver has balls that’s for sure. But what a machine. So stable at high speed. No seriously did you see it 300kph while going into a curve.

Bluesummer · 03-01-2019, 08:34 PM

so nobody wonders what car was in front of the M5 or did I miss the memo?

einscot · 03-01-2019, 09:10 PM

but what about the e63s? i've heard it's so much better

We could've have it in Cali, but nooo... they have voted for high speed train where it still have no progress in sight but higher taxes.

You didn't see the latest news? They gave up already on the train idea.

I miss driving on the Autobahn. Look like I will have to do European delivery again. LOL.

Just_me · 03-02-2019, 03:19 AM

The person filming this video says its a M4 stage 2 in front of him.

EL Jeffe 5 · 03-02-2019, 08:53 PM

Autobahn looks nothing like interstate I take to work on daily basis
I hit at least 12 patholes size of Texas

mmic77 · 03-03-2019, 01:41 AM

Doing 300kmh on a two-lane Highway is completly insane. One crazy move from another driver and you are done.
Dont get me wrong: I have done several highspeed runs with my F-Type and reached 312kmh (194mph). But I was running on a 4-lane Highway late in the dusk in summer. But this video is reckless driving.

Imagine someone passing at 70mph, you come up too fast at 168 to be able to react in any way that wouldn't result in carnage.

I know right? I'm assuming these type of speed related accidents don't happen often but when you see it on tape it just looks nuts.

XsltAnalyst · 03-03-2019, 01:09 PM

Wow, around 6:06 braking from 300 to 110. It's not always sunshine and rainbows in the autobahn, as there is plenty of traffic and long construction zones, speed limit zones and slow cars suddenly pulling up on the left to overtake, and crazy drivers that don't let you pass.

However, on rare occasions (such as Sunday Morning) when the weather is nice, minimal traffic and long de-restricted zones, you can have brief moments of joy, which totally makes you forget about everything for a moment.

I75 in Sarasota is horrible

Stratos · 03-04-2019, 03:00 PM

So basically, yo do 100mph in the right lane, and you get passed by the other car doing (almost) 100mph more. Like sitting in a parked car and being passed by a guy doing 90mph..

I have tried that. Being the guy in the right lane. Autobahn, cruisecontrol on 100mph(160kph), fairly relaxed ride. And the.. BOOM

Some kind of missile just blasts past and I could just feel my car (5-series) get jerked by the air pressure/shockwave. A bit scary..

BwoodBMW · 03-04-2019, 07:03 PM

I was thinking I was awesome on the Autobahn doing about 145 mph in my F80 and saw a flash in my rear view. I was already in the right lane as there was basically no traffic and an RS6 Wagon blew past me like I was standing still. It was so shocking my wife and I still talk about it 3 years later. Not sure if it was modded or not but it was amazing. Good times.

BwoodBMW · 03-04-2019, 07:05 PM

ummm... also are we just not going to talk about how that's probably the best specced non-comp F90 I've ever seen?

I've been wanting to see the Caramel interior with the piano black trim and the fact its paired with green exterior and CCBs. Stunning.
