It depends on how the speed is measured. Car speedometer = 150+ easy. GPS device = 135 would take a LOT of runway.
Seriously, the Autobahn adds a different dimension to the question. I just know, based on the rate of acceleration above 110 - 120, that it would take .5 to 1 mile of uninterrupted acceleration to reach the car's true potential assuming a rolling start (60 mph). At 120, you'll cover a mile in 30 seconds. At 140, it will take about 25 seconds, so .5 miles at 140 is 12 seconds. I do believe the factory rated top speed above 140 for a Carrera, but it would be no small feat. In factory trim, the motor would have to be above 6k in 5th gear.
