i think you should be good up to 140 mph with proper speed rated tires
i used to live in Germany (southern) and can just imagine how much fun it would be on A6 at 150

I been as high as about 210 km/h (about 130 mph). Here in Ontario they just came out with a new law that if you're more than 50 km/h over the limit, its automatically considered "street racing" your car is impounded for I think a week and you can get jail time and $10,000 fine. Since then I've slowed down but before I used to regularly cruise around 160 km/h (100 mph) or slightly higher...there are places/times when you can do it relatively safely. Just after the law was passed I blew by two cops on the side of the highway, doing probably around 170 or 180 km/h racing a GS430...we both pulled off the next exit somehow the cops didn't follow us, they must have just setup and not had their radar on yet or something!
