You're right, that is one ugly nose on the car. The interior isn't bad, it has
a better layout, to my eye at least, than the BMW or MB. I'm surprised at the
torque figures for the W12. I thought they would be higher. I have to check,
but I thought that comparable displacement engines from other manufacturers
had higher torque values.
