Phatcat I see they tested the 812 which I hadn't realized they had, any chance you could upload that test if you have it?
Think it goes down to the 60-100 80-120km/h times. The M8 really pulls at higher speeds. That's more relevant on a track compared to 0-100km/h times for instance. Surprises me too, however.
S63 engine has always been very strong at high speeds.
