Default My New 5.2 V10 toy ;)

Always wanted a S8....so my Mrs got it for me, kind of
It hasn't got 4 rings, but at least 'heart' is from the S8
It's electric and engine (heart) is actually build from electronic components, only

I was sceptic on the beginning, BUT, I have to say, this is the most comfortable computer mouse I ever owned....and it runs very smooth
Plus the lights are very cool (they work only when you moving it)

True

Another example to not let your Mrs handle your dreams.
I told her, either S8 or a Lambo with exactly same engine, and what I got, a V12....W12, oh yeah !!! But, I can't really moan, better V12 than a 4 cylinder EcoBoost diesel
