I did 337 km/h according to the HUD speedometer !!!

All this talk about a stock M6 (or slightly tuned M6) being able to do over 330 km/h effective (GPS-measured) speed is BS.

Have a look at the M6 tuned by LUMMA. It has 544 bhp and does 327 km/h without the body kit.

SO have you measured your speed in GPS Autobahnraser? 337km/h is still very fast! WHat can it be, 320 km/h real speed?

No I did not. I figure 337 km/h is circa 322 km/h real speed.
