The build quality is stellar, and customization options are endless.

The handling is plush with the updated AIRMATIC suspension. It takes rough rides in its stride without disturbing the passenger comfort.
Features
You get a stonking 6.6 liter V12 engine that puts out 563 HP. The key is not the power but how quietly it delivers it on the road.
