It has a speed regulator that does not allow it to go faster. The fastest

(...) Well ya, the legal limit in the US generally tops out around 75 or so, Unfortunately Montana has abandoned their "reasonable and prudent speed" limit and switched to 75, I think. 155 is fairly fast for a wagon. (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) The reason for the regulator is that the tyres on the 540i cannot handle speeds over 155MPH. Change the tyres and then get the regulator removed and you'll have a faster wagon. (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
