What's this?

Son bought BMW 335xi in 2014. He drove at speeds up to 130 on Autobahn


We picked up the car in Munich as part of European deliver and drove southern Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. We were there during Oktoberfest, so this make it doubly good.

Interesting when you get up to 130 and can see a bigger Benz, Beamer, of Audi coming at you fast at 150 plus. Stay out of the left lane unless really hauling.

The Autobahn has varying electronic posted speeds depending on traffic and populated areas. There are parts that limit speed limits.

Austria and Switzerland have Autobahns too but speed limits aren't as high. Good roads and good drivers compared to some in the states.
