I need to redo this as reliability.

Basically, "Danger zone".

That's my plan with my sportcross! Wohoo, I'm not alone in thinking this is the path to salvation! Only itbs are my plan ;)

you may find the engines mass a tough lump to swallow

Tempting.

Twin turbo V-12's are the sociopaths of reciprocating engines.

Who wouldn't want one??

Doh, I forgot the link: http://sanantonio.craigslist.org/cto/5116334366.html

You could always buy a perfectly good S600 and swap the biturbo into your biturbo

I hate waiting. Sellers are out of town, I can't see it (possibly buy it until Wednesday)

It might just be me, but an ad like this throws up the warning flags for me. Based on the location of the car in the photos, this obviously isn't the original owner. That fact, coupled with the lower-than-book price, screams "I can't afford to fix what this car needs!"

I might be wrong though, it happens occasionally.

Was the vw phaeton a w12? Get one of those?

In reply to wvumtnbkr:

Most Phaetons were V8s, just lik most Audi A8s were V8s.

The first series W12 had an almost 100% crankshaft failure rate, too.

What is the benefit of a W engine vs V engine?

Length. A V12 is 6cyl long, whereas a W12 is 3 or 4 cyl long, depending on configuration. The VW is 3cyl long.
