Why wouldn't it be? Isn't it an ECU flash and some tires?

Yeah, should be possible. Your dealer may know this, he'll get a CD/DVD to reprogram/increase the top speed to 280kph. You need the bootlid spoiler aka gourney flap, though.

Well, thatīs what I think, but for instance here in Spain, at least when I bought the car ( Dec 07 ), the factory option was not available.

I īm not interested at all in the tyres, but I will love to have the speed imit extended.

I just come back from a tryp and the car is so powerfull.....I think that wihtout the limiter it will pass the 180 mph...

If it's not offered in your country it's probably not be available as retrofit pack also.

Well, without the tires, it isn't the M Driver's Package.
It would just be the top speed limiter removal, assuming of course your car came with the lip spoiler. (happy S?)

Erm, thanks for that, I think.

Three pics, first one you cannot see the front and back of the car. The second one, on it's side, and the car is in the distance. The third picture is of a hotel.

And they are in the wrong forum anyway.

But other than that, top marks.

You know, I always feel guilty when somebody responds to my sarcastic comments with politeness, as you have in this case.

Get some pics up in the photo forum quickly.
