The V may beat in price, but it can't beat the Bentley's W12 engine sorry

There may be a better version, but the Bentley I read about had 552hp and 479ftlb. The LSA makes 550hp and 550lbft, so I think it has a pretty good chance.

Doesn't the W12 he's talking about make like 1,000 HP?...

Nope - I'm wrong...
