what is your favorite BMW speed
what is your favorite BMW speed
might be my OCD, but when I set the cruise, I love setting it to 128 (KMH) (because mine is a 128) so the question goes out, also which variant do you have ? It's just a bit of fun, so hayters, please stroll on |

80 mph, because fuck Kmh
Seriously though 80-85 is probably my favorite because of how smooth the car cruises at this speed, while also being with the flow of traffic so I don't stand out to law enforcement on my commute in. I also still manage 24-26mpg somehow.

Texas highway 130 has an 85 mph speed limit, so I usually set the cruise to about 93 (150 kph). Car seems right at home at that speed

I'm liking this. Gonna have to use this line when I get pulled over for going 228kph in my 228.
On a slightly more realistic note, I found that for me, peak mpg was around 75-80mph; on roads allowing >80 the mpg dropped just a little. And mine gets almost as good mpg driving mountain twisties (where the fun per mile is at least 50x highway miles). Love those western speed limits - something very liberating about setting cruise control to over 90, or having a patrol car drift by, totally uninterested, at 85mph. |
