Nice choice of D3.

However, I would be inclined to look at The D3 S8 V10. It's a sportier drive, the suspension is firmer, and though the 0 - 60 mph for both is officially 5,1 secs, the S8 feels quicker. I've driven both, and would choose the S8 anyday.

Power output is the same for both, at 450 hp, the W12 has 40 Nm more torque though. As for thirst? Not sure, but the W12 may be juicier.
