Started to think, that there are not so many cars with V8 TT setup straight out from factory and most of them are exotics.
The list what I could put togehter is:
Ferrari 288 GTO
Ferrari F40
Maserati Shamal
Maserati Quattroporte
Maserati 3200
Saleen S7
Lotus Esprit
Vector W8
Cayenne Turbo :boring:
In addition there are some street legal Le-Mans cars like Nissan and Toyota, but those are not real production cars. Also, Lingefelter products can be considered as tuner cars.
So, :addict: is in very exotic company. Can anybody add to this list ?

The 3000GT has a few powerplant choices; a 3.0-liter, 161-hp SOHC V6, a 3.0-liter, 218-hp SOHC V6, or the twinturbo-charged 3.0-liter, 320-horsepower SOHC V6

Quattroporte IV was produced during second half of the 90's with both, V6 and V8 biturbo engines. And I like the design of this car as much as the current generation.
Bentley is using single turbo setup, like also Pontiac in their 1980-81 ("Smokey and the Bandit") Trans-Am.

The Bentley is in fact a twin turbo unless Bentley themselves are liars.

Not much reason to lie about. :) I didn't know that new model has TT setup, so you were correct.
