For those of us with the full fat 4.8, it comes as no surprise with regards to the performance. That engine has the curious ability to feel strong and relaxed at low revs, full of intent at mid-revs - and then absolutely bombastic at higher revs.

It is genuinely supercar quick up to about 120mph - at which point aerodynamics catch up with it.

The way the auto slurs the changes adds to the sensations. I mentioned it before, but a 599 owner who I took out in it was staggered by the performance.
