More Cubic inches and more cylinders help at higher speeds as far as I've experienced...

Well let me give you an example....... When I had my GS400 I used to race with my friend with his tiptronic S4. From 0-60 we were pretty close, although I was about a car length ahead. However, at higher speeds, there was no contest. I easily out accelerated my friend in his S4... I didn't know torque until I traded in my GS400 for the E55 which has 5.5 liters and has an exorbitant amount of torque. Acceleration on the highway is a breeze....
