Isn't it a V10 @ 450hp??? I don't think the V8 can wet the pants.

All fun until you pull up to the pump, then you loose your shorts.

Default well, it has an extra 120 cubic inches over the gallardo's V10

and puts out 50 fewer horsepower.

obviously it'll be more refined and smooth, but still...

M5's got a 5.0L V10 and puts out 500+

i'd still love to have ANY S8

You're not taking into account where it's making the power, how much gas it's using.

Default 120cid is 1.97L......Wanna check your spec's? It's only 0.2L larger, and the reduced hp and larger

displacement probably means a good amount more torque, which for a HEAVY car is good.
