True, 760i is a sporting car, but not to the same degree, nor in vain of anything along the lines of the S8.

synopsis of 760i from bmwusa.com:

Quote:
The 760i is the sublime culmination of all things BMW–performance, luxury, and technology–united in order to grant the driver an unparalleled experience behind its sport-spoked steering wheel. Beneath the sculpted hood lurks a 6.0-liter, V-12 engine, producing 438 horsepower and 444 lb.-ft. of torque, the power of which is manifested in the massive 20-inch wheels and performance tires, as well as standard Electronic Damping Control suspension with default Sport mode. Luxuries are also found in abundance in the 760i, including an Active Support “massage” feature in the driver’s seat, Active Ventilation on front seats, Dark Ash wood interior trim, and a 13-speaker Logic7 audio system with 6-disc CD changer. No other vehicle can approach the 760i’s singular combination of thrilling sport performance, and lavish comforts.
