Looks like someone takes their MPH reading on the dyno pretty seriously.

jebdog

simple he once drove 107.5 mph looked at the tachometer and it was only 1/2 way to redline therefore assumed at redline 215 MPH , it is so simple !

F-car and L-car guys have been suffering from this syndrome for years. In most real-world tests, those cars fall miserably short of the bragging speed. I guess we can't really fault a guy who uses a factor lambo-K when 'estimating the potential top speed' numbers. Reality is that only a very few in the US will ever get close to the S4's 165 advertised top speed, so only those same few might be even slightly disappointed that the same car won't quite make it to 215. Maybe a buyer will do like the F-car and L-car guys, and just mention that "the seller said it will go 215!" when asked by friends how fast it will go.
