I did when I was in Germany last year and had a Cayman S rental. But I was definitely not using cruise control ...

Yeah. 162mph on the autobahn in July......but I wasn't using cruise control...lol. I video taped it too but have not loaded it up yet.

It's a bit scary because you really have to anticipate traffic 1/2 mile ahead. A bit nerve racking.

Wow! That is way above the advertised top speed. You must have had a long stretch to wait to get up to that speed.

196 mph/315 kph on Autobahn 8 returning home to Stuttgart from Munich in my 2014 911/50th Anniversary. Still had some RPM left to get to 200 mph, but had to slow down for traffic. Smooth as a baby's bottom.
