Opinions on AM V8...

Ok, this has been bothering me for a while... For some reason, I really like the AM V8. I don't know what it is, the design, the prestige, the exhaust note. I know it is slower than the E55 and all, but isn't it fast enough? Did anyone ever drive one? Pros and Cons?

Any help will be appreciated.

2 words: Pure Sex. You may not blister pavement, but you will burn the retinas of anyone who looks too long at your car. It's that hot. The exhaust note, the feel of all the leather, the edgy looks, these are all parts of an intense visceral experience. If I could justify a 2 seater, I would have taken it home.

The 380ps 4.3 is too slow.

They've just released a 420ps 4.7 in England. Wait for that to hit the states and pull the trigger.
