Most German cars of the 00s have been limited to 155 mph or 250 km/h since about the 90s or 00s. Assuming they’ve got power to go faster, that is.
They’re not super difficult to unlock I hear. Never needed it myself so I’ve never done it, but if I was the kind to need to run away from police cars limited to 155, well… An unlimited 3 liter diesel without any mods to increase power can do a bit over 155. One with a few supporting mods and a remap can likely do near or over 200 on a budget. If gearing allows. In a car that still look and sounds like your ol’ family tractorwagon. You don’t need to get an RS6 or an M5.
Of course if your car chase is going to last several hours or something, you probably don’t want to do it in a 20 year old wagon you’ve modded in your own garage. But for a highway getaway car that’s also stealthy, that’s what I’d recommend. 5 series, A6, or E-Class wagon, 3 liter diesel (okay, the OM642 is not great - recommend an older 3.2 OM648 instead if you want to push big power).
