Could also go the JDM import route for a W12 Touareg.

That W12 only has 444hp from 6.0L?

Getting a W12 isn’t about being good. It’s about sending a message.

Also refer to the V12 AMG’s

Might be the answer as it worked for Buster! Perhaps the only way to get rid of whatever remaining testosterone there is. lol



Some of this is right, some not. I do like the dopamine/adrenaline rush factor, but cars definitely make me happy. Only issue is I am only happy for a short period of time after the purchase rather than long term. Definitely need to figure out a different way to get the 'rush' that can provide some longer term happiness.



Indeed. This might be the reasoning for sure, now just need to figure out that elusive alternative to cars.



I will need to pass this by the wife. For some reason as accepting as she has been about my car craziness, I feel this will not go over very well. Particular so since initially whenever we argued about my car habits, I would say it's either this or hookers and blow so pick one and she stopped arguing about cars after that. Haha.



Honestly it's got plenty of power as it is, the M850 feels just as quick if not quicker. But where the fuck do you even go that fast without getting fucked? Just the other day I got a photo radar in the mail for 46 km/h over with $440 or something fine. That was the first few days with the M850 on the Henday and I was running late for a meeting. I saw right when it happened too - passed an overpass and looked in the rear view mirror to see the fucking truck parked on top. Luckily wasn't 50+ over which then is a mandatory appearance rather than a specified fine.



See above re: issues with this suggestions. lol.

Finding that golden mean comes with life, experiences and doing baller things. Keep at it shak!

…is that not good?

Is an ‘07.

6.2amg in the C63 was 451hp, same year.

2008 corvette with a 6.2L was 430hp

Ford 3.0L in a Ranger or Fusion or Mazda 6 at that time was 220hp, I think. Makes them all sound pretty "consumer grade"...
Audi RS4 around that time was 420hp out of their 4.2L, was it not?

I understand what you’re saying, and the Audi engine was purpose built V8 for the R8 that trickled down. Or trickled up, I’m not sure.

Incidentally, if you compare the two engine’s specific torque values, they’re almost identical.

I also think the W12 is essentially early/mid 90s Volkswagen VR6 technology. They just put two VR6 engines together.

It’s relative, but I think it makes awesome power for what it is.

I think it made 600hp in the supercar concept (nardo) in ~01

W12 is impressive for reasons other than specs.

[Team_Mclaren]

First nice weekend of the year. time to get it wash and prepped to bring it back on the road

[rage2]

V12





I might hate Ferraris, but pretty cool to see a factory mint time capsule.

[ExtraSlow]

Incredible.

[BavarianBeast]

Beauty, that looks pristine. Any pics of the car?

You're both wrong. It's a Maybach.

It’s just a really expensive Fiero conversion let’s get serious.

I understood that reference.
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to ThePenIsMightier again.

Giving NegRep to kErT is an equivalent gesture. Or to anyone who posts in a Toma or ZenOps thread.
My rep points have multiple revenue streams.

I listened to some podcast with Dan Bilzerian and the guy interviewing asked him what it was like to bang 10's all the time and he admitted that it doesnt excite him anymore because hes been with so many. He went on to say when he buys a super car his excitement level is at a 5 because again he has so many. I'm not comparing you to Dan in anyway but it definitely sounds like you have the same problem whether good or bad lol I think a lot of people have the same problem, I know i do but on 1/100th of your level. I work my ass off for something i really want and then when i finally get it, im happy no doubt but after awhile im always wanting even more

In regards to your photo radar ticket you should look into a radar detector that can detect them. https://kmph.ca/best-radar-detector-...mmer-edmonton/
