    He is right, but that's the factory policy. When the M3 CSL came to Australia, if you had a CAMS C1 licenece they would remove the limiter for you. And AMG will raise the limiter on their cars to 300kmh if you pay (a shit load) for it.

    Before 2007 there was no limit

    But tuners not directly linked with the factory (Schnitzer and the likes) as well as companies like Brabus and Alpina give you the absence of the limiter "for free"
