150 km/h ? Is that legal ? Ha ha , not that legalities ever stopped a little fun.
I certainly agree that passing time needs to be as short as possible.
My technique is to move out of lane, grip the steering wheel firmly and point the car towards empty space, then mash the accelerator to the floor. As soon as my eyeballs detach from skull I signal to move back into lane and lift foot from accelerator. Always over 100 mph (approx 160 km/h) by that time.
I’ve found that acceleration is brisk to about 130 mph, and the rate slows from there on up.

Are those Cabriolet or Coupé
Because if the are Cabriolet, I would investigate the roof hydraulic system carefully.
1- I recommanded to verify the hoses at the pump to see if they are new or start to fall apart.
2- opening and closing the soft top to check the hatch and synchronization
3- a complete system (hoses et ram from Top hydraulics worth almost 1600$
4- test the cruise control if it work properly
5- CD Charger in the trunk if it operate with the radio to skip from CD to another
6- Electric antenna
Enjoy it after
