Pagani did not get off so lucky

I, among many others would love to see this through. But this will require renewal of the current Cologne engine plant contract, which expires in 2017.

Twin turbo V8 for the SUV I could totally see. For the vantage coupe no so much, there is almost zero room for turbos down there. The ML63 already has a 5.5L biturbo in that chassis so putting 4.0TT in that chassis is a piece of cake.

Just a bunch of fart can noise. AMG sound has never been good, even in NA form. If I want my car to sound like a NASCAR v8, I'll buy one of those.
