subjective question....

depends on the engine, diff, gearbox ratios, etc....

I've taken my m20b25 to about 210km/h on a 3:45 diff using a standard 240 tranny. felt like there was more but I'm too much of a wuss to go any faster.

must also qualify by saying that it takes hell of a long time to even get to 200.

I really don't think the average e30 should be pushed to those limits all that often...engines and drivetrains are getting pretty old.

My M40 175kmh also run out of steam adi. Lol.
Must be the heavy 16" rims and the stupid boot spoiler. Laughing
