I don't know - I think there are tons of twin engined planes that can beat it ... Mig29, Typhoon II, F-22  etc.

So is the Mitsubishi Marquise, faster but with less power.
However that doesn't make it "better" though

I've got 50 hours in a 200 and about 30 hours in an MU2. The MU2 doesn't even compare to the King Air. The MU2 is loud, uncomfortable, and hard to fly. The King Air is spacious, quiet, and a joy to fly. Defiently over priced though, if I had 5.7 million to spend, it wouldn't be on a King Air.

Yep, I like the P180 too. Real Italian style, and the cabin is pretty roomy compared to the KingAir, I believe. Great pix and interesting review in Flying magazine, November '91. But what makes an aircraft the best? I suppose it's horses for courses. ;)
