250 km/h in Germany in an M5 - too bad electronic stepped in, at the time the owner hadn't gotten the limit removed yet.

270 km/h in my 996 C4S with room more driving in the middle of nowhere in Nevada with a bunch of other over-excited sports car drivers

265 km/h = 165 mp/h in German autobahn. Still accelerating a bit. My car is 996 3.4 Carrera 2 with Aero package. No other upgrades. I dont know if it is the Aero-Kit but my car went so smooth at that speed - like a bullet train. After 160 km/h the ride got better and better.

Here is a funny thing. After riding that fast for some time it sounded like my car had cleared its throat. The sound has been so much better after that.

Here is the proof:

181mph on the A28 near Rouen in France.

Edit: In terms of legality, when travelling in France, I believe the constitutional status of us brits is 'invader', so as long as we don't breach the Geneva Convention, its all good.
