Pretty bad ass. But I prefer the CLS 63 AMG. Cool

I was expecting "Fuel economy" as an answer

Allan, I have always had a soft spot in my heart for a V12, ever since I heard (or rather didn't hear it was so smooth) a Jaguar V12. Some research showed it to be a maintenance nightmare, as was, surprisingly enough, the Mercedes and BMW V12's!

Inasmuch as I am a Dago and love my Ferraris, I have to admit, the brits know how make the perfect exhaust note.

There is absolutely no better pleasure inspiring, smile inducing sound ever made than a british V12. Nothing.

I went to look at DB9s. Dealer asked if I wanted to drive the Vanquish. I pressed start and that was it.

I had no issues with the V12, drove it daily for a few years. On the contrary, the last 2 MB 8s I've had were dogs, and I'm a double digit repeat customer. Very disappointed.




There are two types of people in the world: those that get things done and those who make excuses. There are no others.
