on my way back from seremban and had the rare opportunity to see 2 Brabus D4 following each other with a 328i E36 sandwiched between them..
the 328i finally detoured into the service area and the 2 Brabus D4 just took off following each other...the acceleration viewed from where i was looked mind blowing..they found a long clear stretch and took off in a few seconds and not visible anymore...i was in my in a wira and not in my UDM...if i were in my UDM i could have trailed them much longer...the wira was flat out at 160kmh..i guess the guys in the D4 were doing more than 220kmh..

Yup, I own a Wira too... anything more than 140kmh and you are playing dice with the handling... that is why I got a BMW for my outstation jaunts. However, with my "lightly" modded Wira, I cud see 190kmh easily (but that is nothing compared to my BMW). :D

the black D4's are an awesome machine with diesel power!
i wonder how these beasts perform compared to a stock 530i..
