Default AV6 Highway Acceleration

I find that my car stops accelerating at a decent speed after 170km/h, incidentally around the time the car goes from 3rd into 4th. It just takes forever to get to even 190 km/h....

Is this just my car or is it evident in other AV6s?

Thats a automatic 4-speed for ya. Even still, the av6's have pretty good top end. Bet the bimmer in you sig doesnt have that problem.

yep that's what 4 gears will do to you. that's why the new ones have a 5sp automatic.
