Wow, \"efficiency\" and 4.7 V8.
-Yes, we\'re living in some odd times.
But it\'s still beautiful, actually this engine makes smooth V12 from CL 600 seem a lot less interesting than it used to be compared to recent 5.5 V8. And it makes some seriously funny fuel consumption numbers for a TT V8.
These Benz guys have been making really great cars for the past 130 years, don\'t you think? Seems like they don\'t intend to stop.
