Or 200, if your BMW can go that fast. <g> No doubt the Testarossa is a nice
car, but it's an exotic so it's a lot less friendly to own than a BMW. Some
of us need a back seat too. ;-) BTW, this brings up something I've been
meaning to ask... I'm sure SOMEBODY out there has the answer. What's the
fastest a production model BMW can run? (Not counting an F1 or something
like that) Stock/modified catagories. I'm sure they are all Euro models but
I thought it'd be interesting to find out. I've heard the Euro M3 Evo can do
about 175mph or so. Any others that are faster?
