Look at the BMW v10 application, do you call 8mpg efficiency???? give me a break junior and come back and talk when you can afford the cars that you talk about.

I typo'd..meant 6.0L W12. Z06's, 911s and M3s are meant to shine on the track not the street...a wider powerband is what you want on the track..and gear-ratios to match the engine. Stock LS3 is not even 70hp per liter..I'd to see where you're able to get another 30hp/L just from tuning.. 760li has a combined epa rating of 18mpg..that ain't bad for a V12 pulling around something that weighs that much. And quit the lame arguement of me not being able to afford what im talkin about..makes no sense and has nothing to do with what we're talkin about.
..All a transmission is, is a torque multiplier, so this arguement of tq down low doesn't hold at all..wide powerband and good gearing are where it's at.
