Well if you have a V8 engine pushing 1,000hp you'll have a fairly rapidly accelerating vehicle. Not really that shocking to me personally. Also to Germans sped is a whole different ballgame. You'll see cars traveling well past 160MPH over on some sections of the autobahn.Once at night in the fall got a 1987 BMW M3 up to 235KMH(146MPH) that was just an inline 4 cylinder with a few modifications even at that speed I got passed that is actually the fastest I have even driven a vehicle that I was physically driving. Now I rode once with a German friend in a "Yellow Bird" (RUF) Porsche 911 we got to 323KMH(201MPH).
