Bunk or Not?

Last night I went to the local watering hole, and I saw a guy getting out of a gold 380SE. He came into the bar, and after a while I asked him how he liked his Mercedes. He told me that he loved it, and got it from the son of the original owner who bought it in Germany in 1984 and imported it to the U.S. in '86. In the course of our conversation, he told me it had "double overdrive" that kicked in at 85 mph, and that this feature only came on certain Euro cars. I've never heard of that. Anyone have any idea what he was talking about?
