] Starting the 9.0-liter, 64-valve, naturally aspirated
] all-aluminum V16 engine, the sound is of a brilliantly
] machined instrument, here with 16 silky-smooth throats
] talking. Frankly, 600 horsepower feels conservative and
] wed guess at a 0-to-60-mph time in the five-second
] neighborhood. You can only drive this with a tuxedo on and a bottle of Grey Poupon. |
