Battle of the 12's

You might wonder, why put the S class 65 AMG up against the 760 Li or the A8 W12 L, when the R 2,200000 price tag, is above the R1,7 million of the Audi and BMW. At half a million more it might seem a bit out there. Considering the S63 AMG is the same as the other two competitors, but this is not a test so much as a clash of Titans. A final battle between the flagship German brands to ultimate 12 cylinder supremacy.





To start off the Mercedes S 65 AMG, has a massive 6,0 liter V12 bi turbo that pulls out 450 KW (612bhp), and a universe starting 1000 Nm of torque. This shoots the giant to 100 Km\h in just 4,4 seconds, and on to a top speed of 250 Km\h. In the other hand you have the BMW 760 which also uses a twin turbo V12 that has 400 kW and 750 Nm of in your face tar turning torque, which propels the Terror to 100 km\h in 4,95 seconds. The Audi A8 W12 on the other hand is a bit more calm and slick using a naturally aspirated W12 is a 6,3 liter has only a pit bull rage of about 368 Kw which still pushes it to 100 Km\h in 5 seconds.



The 3 cars have many similarity's, the 12 cylinders for one and the huge long body's that store not only enough space for a small apartment., but also enough gadgets to make a supper computer brain fry. Including seat heating and massage features and all the comforts that makes the queen happy. Despite its size and weight these cars have been known to embarrass some really fast cars go read faces and driver sense that rivals supper cars.



These cars are designed for comfort speed and luxury, the kind that makes people stop and look. The cars are cars made so people like us have a goal to work to and a dream to reach. However you look at them whether bombastic, loud or beautiful they effect all of us.
