My daily driver was DESIGNED to run roads with NO speed limit. Because it was sold in North America it is electronically governed to a maximum of 155 mph, but the speedo goes to 190 mph.
I have driven it’s twin in Germany at speeds north of 130 mph, it felt no different than 100 mph here does.
Insane? No, not really I’ve flown aircraft at ~5 times that speed, and landed them at more than that speed on a rolling ship

Your daily driver wasn’t designed to run at 130 on roads with pot holes, uneven surfaces, etc. There is a huge difference driving in Germany where other drivers are attentive to what they’re doing and expect the high speeds and here, where other drivers are texting, putting on makeup, reading, etc. in all available highway lanes.
