RE: large fast cars...
Speaking of fast Bentleys/Rolls....

>From this week's Auto, Motor und Sport on the Geneva car show:
Audi S8: 340 HP; 0-100 kmh in 5,5 sec. I think the lifters on the intake are
mechanical, it was tough to translate. And if I remember correctly 11.4:1
compression.
Audi S6plus: 326 HP, 6 speed tranny. Available this fall.......in Europe.
