Hey if this crazy monster power trend continues you never know. Would be sweet.
Unfortunately we are in the age of downsizing so just cannot see that ever happening. I suspect this will be the last time they'll use a V12 in a 7 series as well to be honest.

It's got to be considerably underrated. Hopefully someone will dyno one before too long. Man I have always liked the look of most Porsche cars but have to say I really don't like the look of their Panamera body.
I know what you mean, it's hard to resist and if you've not driven one before you want to know just what it is you've purchased

Amazing pics. The speakers also really do look very swish. Only had it during the day so not seen the car at night yet.
