M235i top speed - is it really limited ?
Can anyone tell me whether the top speed on the M235i is electronically limited to 130 mph or not ?
I am reading conflicting information on this: BMW USA's site (M235i specs page) shows the top speed as limited at 130 mph and next to it shows [155], which I take it to be the actual top speed if there was no limiter.
On the other hand, the test drive report I saw on Car & Driver's site shows the top speed reached on track as 155 mph.
If it is limited indeed, it will be a deterrent from getting an M235i. I mean, why pay for 320 horses if you will never be able to use them all ?
Any information will be very much appreciated.
