Top Speed

Mexico term has been around for years. I know of a few forums from back in the day. Not that I am older than dirt but have followed Mustangs for years.

My current car, one I hope to sell in the next few weeks, is a BMW 440 convertible. Back in 2017 when I bought it BMW still had a program for US buyers to take delivery in Germany, drive around a few days or weeks, and then let them ship to your US dealer. My build date was a few weeks before a planned business trip elsewhere I Europe so I flew to Munich a few days early and toured Southern Germany.

On a trip to the Porsche Museum I found myself on a stretch of Autobahn with unlimited speed. Like a 2024 GT, it is limited to 155if you pick the right tire option and I managed to get to about 149 before ...well, before I got scared.

I can't imagine ever seeing really high speeds here in the US but maybe there are places I don't know of where its possible or even legal?. Of course we'll should obey all traffic laws,, but it's a bit sad knowing it's there and I'll never get anywhere near it. I think some stretches of Texas are 85...but Michigan drivers do that all day long where the limit is 70.

PARTS of .Michigan are 70, but no one goes that slow. Even Chevy cruises do 75

I first heard it watching YouTube videos.

There's tons of motorcycling videos filmed in Los Angeles that claim to be "shot in Mexico".

It's one of those old forum things like saying "someone who isn't me" when telling a story.
