So what is that option number for the 280 kph speed limit? Or do you mean the speedometer goes to 280 kph?
As far as I understand it (and confirmed by two bmw dealers over here) all AG cars are limited to
210 kph unless they have the
M-sport package which includes
option #840 (speed syncronation). Then the car is limited to
250 kph. But the speedo always lies (ie reads faster than true vehicle road speed!). When it reads 250 kph or more(say 280 kph) you are NOT traveling that fast. Your gps will show you how fast you really are driving.
Most people just do not have an autobahn at their doorstep to play around at these speeds with. And most people do not feel comfortable enough at those speeds to look over at their GPS or look at thier hood that is lifting up!
Our cars get very squirrely at any speeds over 190 kph. And after 240 kph (and up!) the car really starts to move around.
