Good point. Take it slow, try to play it safe as much as you can. Don't be stupid one day and punch it to 130...have a feel for 100, 110, 120, etc. as you push it higher and higher.
ya, during my permit times i hit like 65 and slowly moved up to 75, when i got my licence i started going 80, since the beginning of september i hit about 90 in the carpool lane, the night i hit 100 i hadn't even noticed, i was just trying to keep up with traffic in the carpool lane and when i started to slow down i looked at teh guage and it said 100, i think i will keep working around 90-95 before i get at higher speeds [:D] but only 1 more week til i can drive people without a note [:D]

it is too tempting to gun it right away.. specially in a BMW you dont really notice it..

I don't remember if I went over the 120 mark or just below it. It was on an interstate that I haven't been to in the bimmer in a while. Plus, my dad got a ticket for going pretty quick down there, almost got his license suspended so I don't want to take any chances. Sure feels smooth and steady at the speed though.

147 mph last night on A3 and I got past by a "sleeper" 3 series like I was a Bitch on Wheels
Only had one tail pipe, in my experience that means 316-323...nothing higher. *scratching my head in disbelief*

ya seriously, BMW have really good stability at high speeds, sometimes i drive a 01 Toyota Corolla around and when you hit 70-75, you know it, but when i get in my dad's 7 i sometimes hit 90 and don't even notice it, thinking im going like 60-65
