Hey everyone. I bought my '91 325ix AWD and I'm wondering: what's the 0-60mph time, the 60-0mph time, and the max top speed of my car? Does anyone know? Thanks.

Thanks, that gives me an idea, but there's one problem. It says the top speed is 227 km/h. That's over 140mph. I thought these 3 series were electronically limited to around 120 or less. Am I wrong?

Maybe in the US or Canada, but not in Europe.

Boy, that sure sucks. Maybe I should get a performance chip.

I have no idea how you can remove the electrical speed limiter! Maybe a V-max chip??

Most chips don't limit you.

Well that web site said since '93, BMW uses limiters. Mine's a '91, so does that mean my car isn't electronically limited?

Do you have any pics of your car? I don't think anyone has seen it. I just want to see it before you pass 120 mph and destroy the thing in a firey inferno... GOOD LUCK THOUGH
