So you say that 180kmh is common in your country. What are your speed limits? Do the cops mess with you at all?

Yes im interested in the video. What kinda road are you on at those speeds?
Speed limit on highway is 120kmh and speed cameras are set on 160kmh. Cops don't pull you over for speeding.

Here, you can do high speeds on main highways (some of them not all).

Meh, I've opened up the 3.5 and hit 199. It either is goverened at that speed or I let off on the throttle because I didnt want to get my car cubed here in Ontario. That being said, in my defence.. I have Z rated tires! (I think its Z).

Anyways, I know its frowned upon but when you merge onto a highway at night/ early morning and four lanes are all yours... Being a car enthusiast and all.. What else can you actually think of doing??

I just like to hear the engine roar..

Enthusiast huh? You don't even know the speed rating on your tires. "Enthusiasts" don't take their cars to almost double the speed limit on public roads, regardless of the time and traffic - they do it in controlled situations - AKA the TRACK.

I like in the video how the mpg bar is staying full like you are coasting down a hill or something.

DAAN.
