You want torque? I give you the AMG CL65
BAMM!!!!! 1000Nm at 2000rpm (731lb/ft). 6 liter twin turbo V12 pushing 21psi.
"CL 65 AMG: 1000 Newton metres of torque already available at 2000 rpm
Mercedes-AMG is the creator of yet another automotive masterpiece which celebrates its world premiere in Geneva. The new CL 65 AMG continues the successful twelve-cylinder tradition of Mercedes-AMG with an up-to-date V12 power unit which exhibits stunning performance characteristics. Thanks to twin turbocharging this engine develops 450 kW/612 hp and makes a remarkable 1000 Newton metres of torque available from 2000 rpm. This makes the CL 65 AMG the most powerful AMG model to date.
Thanks to this muscular AMG 12-cylinder powerpack the Coup

Does it seem strange to anybody else that a 6 liter turbo V12 at 21psi only gets barely over 600hp?
I guess they wanted some massive bias towards the low end. It's not a sports car, after all, no matter how fast it might be.
