You're point is understandable. Although my point being the 760i isn't exactly a blistering performer, nor is the A8 W12. As far as I'm aware neither of those surpass that 0-60 mph mark of 5.0 seconds (and neither really surpass they're base V8 models).

But I do think it's clear that in this arena of 12 cylinder executive saloons, the S600 stands alone.
