I read somewhere that there is some kind of limiting factors that only allow the X5 to go up to 127mph (fuel cut-off or so). So I just wanted to try it out on I-5 in CA on my way back to San Diego.

I got clocked by a cop at 130mph momentarily after that (but he was nice enough to put down 105mph), got a big ticket, was required to show up in court, license suspended for 30 days, the insurance went up double for the following three years and the DMV's record was just cleared last December . But honestly, I felt like I was going around 90 mph or so.
