We have Vmax! I took my McLaren 675LT Spider out for an early morning blast on the Autobahn to experience the top speed it can reach. With empty roads and the McLaren prepared for the occasion, it managed to reach a GPS recorded 324km/h, or 201.3mph. Wow, what an adrenaline rush.
Well done Tim. Maximum respect for driving your cars as they were meant to be driven. That point alone gives you the most credibility amongst your TH-cam peers. This is genuine content and certainly interesting. 👍🏻
This right here is why YOU are the top dog when it comes to automotive youtubers. Getting up at the break of dawn on a Sunday just to let us see you go VMAX in the 675LT. Your reaction with that giggle is priceless and feels genuine! Awesome work Tim 👊😎
If you give me any car I will get up even earlier and max it out and record it! Happy to give you guys content every week. So, who is going to provide me a supercharged/Hypercar do I can make those videos?
Definatly need more shmee cars vmax videos now hitting all the limits of the shmeemobiles from now onwards. Got my heart racing watching that. Superb video Tim.
i've actually had an aventador sv with assumed like 300ish kmh screaming past me on that very stretch of autobahn near frankfurt. i was driving around 140 kmh i've spotted the lights in my mirror and a few seconds later it already blew past me :D was pretty insane, but it doesnt feel that scary actually (maybe cause i saw it coming)
This was one of your best vids - not just the speed (although that was epic) but the early run on a Sunday makes for a far more intimate film. Loved it!
Tim ,I'm utterly bewildered of what the 675 is capable to do, I didn't figure out that its shove would have been so fast! Probably If I had been in the passenger seat, I would have been staggered and a little bit scared! Anyway besides everything your videos are always a "warranty" in terms of contents and that's why I think you would be surely a fantastic host in a show like "Top Gear"!!! Keep us always up with some more contents!!
Tim, in all seriousness I wasn't convinced you'd get it up to 200 MPH....you surprised me in a very good way. You've got a lot of guts to do what you did. I don't care what anyone else says, when it comes down to it most people would not go at that speed because to a non-professional driver that is pretty epic. Well you did it...you've got guts and my respect. Congratulations my friend. (Mike in Ohio)
This is the type of content that will put you ahead of the other Vloggers, using YOUR car to the MAX!! well done, This is more like it tim, keep it going! That moment where you was flat to the floor the speedo going up and down was almost nerve racking to watch! incredible video , probably my fave you've ever posted! I officially Salute you for doing this, the car looked incredible, totally stable, totally with you and allowed you to make this look easy time and time again! WELL DONE!! What a wonderful car my dream spec and dream machine truly envious, thanks for sharing this, maybe one day, ill be able to such a thing!
Impressive Tim, never expected this from you. Being someone who has driven very fast (legally) I can say that even going 150mph leaves you sweaty. I suppose it depends on the car of course. Regards to the car, only thing I would have done differently is the calipers. But ultimately it's whatever floats YOUR boat. Germany also proves that speed is not necessarily dangerous, and makes our antiquated laws in the UK look ridiculous.
Shmee150 That’s true. I’m sure you’ve had it where someone sees you coming up behind them at speed and they pull out at much slower speed on purpose because they think they are doing a public service by making you slow down. When they could cause a massive accident. Yeah lane discipline is generally excellent in Germany
Yeah I can understand that, because it's legal. We don't get that opportunity without the risk of losing our licence and massive fines. My friend had a £1400 fine and 6 points for travelling at 104MPH on a UK motorway.
Probably the most animated and hyped I've ever seen you in a video and it made it quite enjoyable to watch indeed. Congrats on 200mph and the car is genuinely perfect as it is, the wheels look excellent and classy in silver.
WOW. Now that was brilliant. I’m speechless lol. I have loved everything about that car from the beginning and you use it. Good tip on the tyre pressures by the way 👍
Balls!!! Your best video so far. Good job sharing the preparations and speed differentials. Made my adrenaline rise while just sitting on my couch. Congrats on a well executed top speed run.
WOW! That looked really fast, even on video!! Well done Shmee! Thumbs up for doing this as safely as possible. This video reminds me of my trip to Motorworld a couple of months ago, coming back in the middle of the night (around 2 a.m.) on the autobahn, clear road --> Achieved 257km/h. Then our buddy in a Nissan GTR decided we were not fast enough, so he flies past us at 310km/h :p. Gotta love Germany :)!
Damn, that was awesome! Trying to think about what if a car pulled out. That would be my biggest worry. Like you said, the German's are good with keeping to their lanes. Great job Tim!
Favourite video of yours yet Tim! You had that completely pinned! Good man! Be good to see more cars tested this way at this time and conditions. Very interesting. Props!
Thank you so much Tim for sharing stuff like this. I'll probably never get to experience anything that fast so videos like this are a blessing for people like me. Also I've loved you 675lt spec from the beginning and I'm glad that you won't change it. Much love from the US. :)
I live nearby and that stretch of the Autobahn is surely one of the best for a top speed run. Going down the A5 from Darmstadt to Frankfurt. Good job Tim!
Not a hate comment by ANY means: Shmee tbh you're not my fav automobile TH-camr but my god you have received my mad respect for that speed run and for as long as you did too on attempt #2. Had my stomach in a knot!!! Nicely done.
I have been watching u for a while now and i neva expected you to be a kind of person who would dare to go this fast...but daamm dat was impressive .You got my respect after this.
I agree with you, Tim. The car is perfect. No changes necessary. Can't wait until you get that TVR. I think that will top off your collection of perfection.
Awesome! I remember when I lived in Germany I had a BMW M3 up to a hundred and thirty miles per hour and I was scared then so I can imagine what 200 feels like! Great job shmee you are living my dream.
Not only am I impressed by the speed but it's the fact that you do all these calculations so casually in your mind. And yeah you're quite the nerd aren't you :-)
This is f**ing awesome!! And I'm MADLY happy to hear that you will NOT change to black rims. I never liked the black wheels, I've even tried it out on my Audi A6 and I really hated it.. And that Vmax-run, I love your enthusiastic behaviour, this is one of the best videos I've seen from you on a personal level. I now feel I can relate a bit more to you, 'coz I do also get that childish pleasure from this kind of experiences(well, I've never been over 260km/h tho', so I dont know what 324 feels like). Loved it! :)
We have Vmax! I took my McLaren 675LT Spider out for an early morning blast on the Autobahn to experience the top speed it can reach. With empty roads and the McLaren prepared for the occasion, it managed to reach a GPS recorded 324km/h, or 201.3mph. Wow, what an adrenaline rush.
Shmee150 Well done!
Shmee150 you should do this in your other cars
It's tempting isn't it, try each one at Vmax
REALLY IS IT 203MPH TOP SPEED? I THOUGHT IT IS MORE THAN THAT BECAUSE HURACAN AND R8 HAVE AROUND 212MPH.
taking off the ppf alone would have got you an extra mph
Trucks are banned on Sundays but driving 324km/h is perfectly fine. I'm starting to like Germany.
Why do you think I'm half moving here!? xD
Shmee150 Why have you got a nipple on your left eyelid?
@5.04
I bet they quickly clean up a mess on the highway too :P
Vee can also make zee good rules, zee ! ! !vee are not schtupid ! ! !
Well done Tim. Maximum respect for driving your cars as they were meant to be driven. That point alone gives you the most credibility amongst your TH-cam peers. This is genuine content and certainly interesting. 👍🏻
Your smiles after you reached 200mph made my day! gotta love that McLaren!
It's disbelief at how comfortable it is I think! This car never ceases to amaze me
He smiles like me when i reach the 200 *km/h* in my KIA :D
Luc Swildens true it's quick OMG that is so my dream car , can't believe it
324 KM/H for roughly 54 seconds means you went over 3 miles in under a minute 😮😮
That was really intense to watch. So freakin fast.
Crazy speed
That looked like one hell of a time. Always awesome to see someone using their car for what it was engineered to do.
For sure, built for it so test it!
That was a long run at 200. Big balls award, as soon as I clipped 200, I would have had to back off. Respect
What an amazing video. Pinned at 200mph for a good 40 seconds, I love it!
It was quite some adrenaline rush too!
Not every car TH-camr actually does this kind of stuff either. Mad respect.
Now go 200MPH in the mini
Haha, it would shake to pieces long before that!
I love how responsive you are to your community, Tim :P
Hahaha yessss. Give it like 1,000hp lol
This right here is why YOU are the top dog when it comes to automotive youtubers. Getting up at the break of dawn on a Sunday just to let us see you go VMAX in the 675LT. Your reaction with that giggle is priceless and feels genuine! Awesome work Tim 👊😎

Patrick3331 but to be fair, you’re not Tim ;)
and he hasn't got that "giggle"
2:47 There's a rat running across the street!
lol
Made me laugh
That's definitely a squirrel! You see them quite often in Germany.
NO, it was a squirrel. But good observation tho....
Definitely a rat , you could see the tail dragging behind , 🐀🐀
We are proud of you you shmee, you've done wel!
Thank you
Wouter0007 LOOOOOOL
DEAD lol
Awesome well done!
Shmee simultaneously showing the serious real world driving skills, and shutting down (and up) the haters. Well done!
You made me sweat at that last stretch maaaan. You've got some balls of steel. Respect!
Hehe thanks
Definatly need more shmee cars vmax videos now hitting all the limits of the shmeemobiles from now onwards. Got my heart racing watching that. Superb video Tim.
Beautiful car. I feel so lucky for living 10min away from an unrestricted area of the A8. Great to see this car being driven how it’s meant to be.
Even now, with all the good looking additions to your garage, I still think this is the most beautiful skittle of the bunch!
Imagine being on the Autobahn and seeing this fly past 😍
I do wonder what it must be like if you aren't expecting it
Shmee150 Blink and it's gone!
i've actually had an aventador sv with assumed like 300ish kmh screaming past me on that very stretch of autobahn near frankfurt. i was driving around 140 kmh
i've spotted the lights in my mirror and a few seconds later it already blew past me :D was pretty insane, but it doesnt feel that scary actually (maybe cause i saw it coming)
NHG Risk Lucky you! The best I've had is and Aventador slowly drive past on a UK road... its good but not as good as one going 300kph+!
seeing what? a shadow? lol
Excellent way to showcase your fueled passion for cars on the open road especially with ease and finesse. Keep them coming.
well done Shmee !!! what an epic milestone !
This was one of your best vids - not just the speed (although that was epic) but the early run on a Sunday makes for a far more intimate film. Loved it!

For sure, it's also the culture where drivers grow up with much better driving discipline than ours.
Shmee150 That’s true. I’m sure you’ve had it where someone sees you coming up behind them at speed and they pull out at much slower speed on purpose because they think they are doing a public service by making you slow down. When they could cause a massive accident. Yeah lane discipline is generally excellent in Germany
eSysman As a German I can say that every family father with his 2009 Audi A4 goes 150mph on the Autobahn.
Yeah I can understand that, because it's legal. We don't get that opportunity without the risk of losing our licence and massive fines. My friend had a £1400 fine and 6 points for travelling at 104MPH on a UK motorway.
really like the UK but the 70 mph limit is just ridiculous for todays cars
Fair play Shmee, that was impressive! Sat at 200mph for ages just loving life!!!
Awesome video mate, really got a sense of the speed. The acceleration is savage!
Crazy experience for sure
Probably the most animated and hyped I've ever seen you in a video and it made it quite enjoyable to watch indeed. Congrats on 200mph and the car is genuinely perfect as it is, the wheels look excellent and classy in silver.
Epic! would love to have been in the car , and in one of the cars you passed at 300+
I'd actually love to see it from the outside too
Not both at the same time, I hope ;)
@RogerBailey But then Shmee wouldn't have reached 320kph...
i can't wait to see Shmee drive his ford GT on the autobahn! awesome video!
Bring it on, that thing should go 15mph faster or so.
@@Shmee150 who thought that it would be slower!
The wheels should stay!!! They are awesome. At the beginning I didn't like it but now it's awesome. Awesome vid btw.
Good job!
Never expecting that from you on the wheel.
Good video as always
Big achievement especially in one of your own cars! Congrats Tim! XDD
Thank you
Sunday morning Autobahn is on of the best places of the world. Amazing video!
@2:46 german squirrel or a rat :D
Chicho Ben obviously a rat
Chicho Ben that’s obviously a rat :)
I hope I'm not the only one that thought of Top Gear when they joked about Germans pronouncing "squirrel"
its a squirrel man :D!
Rat with some steroids lol 😂
Not every Car Blogger can brag about actually driving at that speed. Well done Shmee. Good video. Throughly enjoyed it.
~ A silent old friend.
Thank you!
+Shmee150 Quick question, You going to settle in Germany eventually?
I don't really know, I'm keeping my movements very fluid
WOW. Now that was brilliant. I’m speechless lol. I have loved everything about that car from the beginning and you use it.
Good tip on the tyre pressures by the way 👍
Balls!!! Your best video so far. Good job sharing the preparations and speed differentials. Made my adrenaline rise while just sitting on my couch. Congrats on a well executed top speed run.
WOW! That looked really fast, even on video!! Well done Shmee! Thumbs up for doing this as safely as possible.

Haha when you can hey
Loving the 675LT more and more..... Crazy speed!!! and seeing you hold that speed for so long and no issues!! That's just Awesome...Well worth it!
Holy! That was exciting to watch. Incredible stuff!
Damn, that was awesome! Trying to think about what if a car pulled out. That would be my biggest worry. Like you said, the German's are good with keeping to their lanes. Great job Tim!
Was so nice to see you enjoy for a full hundred percent, loved it!
Tim without a doubt the best video you have made to date, watching you hit 324km I was focused myself! Don't sell this car lol
Well I had an anxiety attack just watching! Thanks Tim.
"Shmee never drives his cars fast" That's that myth smashed! Well done Tim
Never seen the race between the Ford GT and the MC L Senna ?
Favourite video of yours yet Tim! You had that completely pinned! Good man! Be good to see more cars tested this way at this time and conditions. Very interesting. Props!
Will try when conditions allow, but that's not often
Shmee, that was amazing! Germany def is the best place to own cars like that! In before this goes viral :D
Do not try at home. Sure shmee I will make sure I'm not going to go 200mph with a 675lt at home.
Well you know
Bike Life only thing we can’t do it is basically if we even have a freaking 675lt
Gran Turismo
In your home
...On Forza.
Thank you so much Tim for sharing stuff like this. I'll probably never get to experience anything that fast so videos like this are a blessing for people like me. Also I've loved you 675lt spec from the beginning and I'm glad that you won't change it. Much love from the US. :)
That looked absolutely terrifying!
Now THIS is a great vid, Shmee. This is the type of shit you did in the beginning, which is what won our favor. Thanks for revisiting this format.
the Germans really got the road situation all figured out. we need to learn.
For sure, but it's the culture and nowhere else could learn that
Sadly many polutical parties in the parliament want a speed limit for the future...
omg Shmee said something to me! but yes it would be difficult but it's needed!
Wes -. N k;ijyu
Wes -. Germany actually has done very bad road maintenance.
*man i love that spec 675LT....it looks so damn good :D*
Thank you!
Shmee150 np man, the only thing that could possibly make it look any better is a set of gold wheels !
It's ok. I preferred the coupe version he had.
@@X3.X3 gold would make it look good
Congrats!! Keep up with the amazing content!
Precisely why we watch these videos. All other u-tubers should take a lesson. Well done Tim!!
Well done Shmee!
Awesome Tim, been watching your vids for a long time and that was one of your best. Thanks for sharing such an amazing experience 👍
woow thats amazing. talking about adrenaline rush. Also congrats with almost 1,1 mln subs ☺🤗
I live nearby and that stretch of the Autobahn is surely one of the best for a top speed run. Going down the A5 from Darmstadt to Frankfurt. Good job Tim!
Awesome car 675LT
Well done Tim! My heart was pounding just watching that speedo!
YES FINALLY SHMEE
It took a lot of prep and planning to do this that you wouldn't realise
An Amazing Panda true I bet he'd didn't even think about think about pussying out on this one
What an amazing video and what an amazing car
Fastest I've driven was 120mph in my 1.2 Golf 🤣, I can only imagine what 200 would feel like - great job Tim!
Not a hate comment by ANY means: Shmee tbh you're not my fav automobile TH-camr but my god you have received my mad respect for that speed run and for as long as you did too on attempt #2. Had my stomach in a knot!!! Nicely done.
Do this in FF when it's possible, I would very much like to see that!
MadSix Didn't he sell it?
Not yet, although he is thinking about it.
I have been watching u for a while now and i neva expected you to be a kind of person who would dare to go this fast...but daamm dat was impressive .You got my respect after this.
15000km on the odometer and 200mph, pretty cool 👍
No holding back, this car is made for driving
Shmee150 very few people actually DRIVE those damn supercars seeing you enjoy it so much fills my heart with joy
I agree with you, Tim. The car is perfect. No changes necessary. Can't wait until you get that TVR. I think that will top off your collection of perfection.
Really enjoyed this video. Lovely to see the McClaren hammering it 😎🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Keep up the good work Tim.
Thank you, appreciate the supportive words!
Awesome! I remember when I lived in Germany I had a BMW M3 up to a hundred and thirty miles per hour and I was scared then so I can imagine what 200 feels like! Great job shmee you are living my dream.
Not only am I impressed by the speed but it's the fact that you do all these calculations so casually in your mind. And yeah you're quite the nerd aren't you :-)
Haha yes
Respect to you Schmee for buying these cars and actually doing stuff like this with them.
Best LT I've seen mate 👍👌
Jake Brown Salomondrin's LT Mso was better!
That s the kind of video i want to see more, like the old time, less speacking , more driving! Awsome Tim :D
Excellent video and a good top speed as well 😀👍
12:20 THAT was FLATOUT for a loooong Time !!!
Respekt Tim, your 675 is a Beast.
What so you do on a Sunday morning? ”Oh I just go flat out on the autobahn in my Mclaren”
I can sense the plethora of adrenaline-induced euphoria from you in this video. Great work, this is why I subbed to you!
Gee that looked fast. I'd be shitting myself wooshing past the wall and other traffic at that speed. Good job. Very balsy
What a beauty. Never mind the speed. It’s a beauty to look at. Don’t change anything especially not the wheels.
Wow. What a monster of a car. I'm speechless.
Shmee is Very respectful gentleman!
Well respect on his behavior and discipline. He is a bond Shmee Bond! 🦅🦅🇺🇸😁
What a video and you are a really good driver and that smile haha i see you enjoye it
I love this content! You deliver on real driving, rather than all talk.
More like this please!!! 😂😀
Awesome video. I can never get enough videos of your LT. It's still my favourite TH-camr supercar.
Autobahn will do good for your channel,visit it more often...
It's much easier now that I'm here more often
Shmee150 If I were you, I would buy a Huracan Performante
Alper Öz 675lt would be performante
Shmee : Yes!
Huhahuaha
Best content this week on motoring. CONGRATULATIONS ON 1 MILLION SUBS👍👍
Oh boy thats fast!
This is f**ing awesome!!
And I'm MADLY happy to hear that you will NOT change to black rims.
I never liked the black wheels, I've even tried it out on my Audi A6 and I really hated it..
And that Vmax-run, I love your enthusiastic behaviour, this is one of the best videos I've seen from you on a personal level. I now feel I can relate a bit more to you, 'coz I do also get that childish pleasure from this kind of experiences(well, I've never been over 260km/h tho', so I dont know what 324 feels like). Loved it! :)
Tim goes Balls to the wall in his 675LT crazy crazy fast First on TH-cam! EPIC!
This is what I've been waiting for ages from Tim. Among taking these super cars onto track. Thanks!
Tim living the supercar dream!! Nice one xD
Good job Shmee! You realy hold hit down in the mist the last run! Again, good job! Great vlog.
Mate that is one sexy beast. Excellent choice of car. I really like those pin stripe accents. Great channel mate.
Thanks for the kind words
One of your best videos yet, what a machine!
