In Germany recommended speed on the Autobahn is 130 km/h which translates to roughly 80 mph but where there is no special speed limit you are allowed to drive as fast as traffic permits which means driving your Porsche at 190 mph is absolutely legal when traffic permits.

*When traffic permits*

I have been in Germany and at that time the Autobahns had massive traffic. We were driving like 80km/h yet some people went over 150km/h on massive traffic. It was a scary situation that there would happen something bad, but good that nothing happened to us (ofcourse my dad crashed some cars on the way home and threw a grenade into someone's Hummer, but those are all details) ;)
Cute?

Hehe, I'm currently doing my driver license and had my first drive on an Autobahn last week, it was quite funny though there alsow as massive traffic. It's much better on sundays though because there is a truck ban on sundays.
The fastest I ever drove (passively though) on a normal street was 240 km/h.
160-180 km/h is quite normal though.

My dad told me to stop pressing the speeder after we reached 220. Oh how i love to drive :)

I don't do 240 on normal streets - thats insane. Keep it to the autobahns instead of killing children playing on the road :roll:
i shouldnt talk too much but at least i never drove over 170 on roads with a 80 km/h speed limit..

however i just moved myself with more than 1000 km/h (airplanes rock)

Is that Nissan Xtrail? I'm beginning to think transportation is cheap here in old Norwegen after all. My trucks engine is a 3.5 litre/220hp gas engine, and is supposed to be punished 'pricewise' for polluting the athmosphere like an old coal fired powerplant, but maybe things aren't as bad as I thought :) 600k? Compared to that my truck is cheap.. :)
