I currently own a 1M but have never tried to push it to V Max as it is just going out of break in period, so the question is do the 1M reach 280km/h in speedo also?
i am not really into high speed autobahn driving so i only tried it once so far...

when i drove to munich for welt3.0 i was having a little fun with a swiss e46M3

the speedo definitely showed 280kmh - rpm between 6000 and 6500 then i thought the car felt somehow unstable and i slowed down - i am sure the needle would even travel a little beyond 280

dont know how the speedo translates to real kmh but it will show over 280 - at least mine did
