M8GC is a beast for sure! I'm impressed by the E63s performance-Definitely not a push over. But wait....what are the engineers at Audi doing? That RS6 seems so slow in the performance department!

M8GC is a total beast, completely destroyed the competition. That expensive Panamera is such a disappointment. Last edited by AlexFL; 09-19-2020 at 11:16 PM.. |

I was frankly even surprised that the E63s facelift didn’t get a power bump to match up with the M5c. |

Glad I didn't plunk down a deposit on the RS6... Did I miss if they allowed the Panamera to hit the boost button? That allows full electric and ICE power for 20 seconds (different than the LC). I think, out of the 4, I would go with the MB E63S wagon.

Impressive race, although from the second roll BMW could use a bit of help in being a bit quicker in response compared to the MB and Porsche which were quicker.
As for me, I'd probably take the Porsche in its refreshed GTS/Turbo form, the 8GC is beautiful, but I love a wagon, especially the look of the Panny wagon, though knowing its lack of practicality I'd go for an E63S as the best all rounder. As for the Audi, it sure is beautiful, hopefully they'll get their performance numbers up now that the entire class is using what use to be their secret weapon (AWD).

Would gladly take any one of these, although the Panny ST is

At least in Canada, RS6 is substantially cheaper compared to M8. More comparable to M850 really.

Drag races like this mattered when cars were much slower
These cars are ALL way too fast already most people will never use them as the video shows in any regular way. It doesn't really matter who is 1st or 4th. These people just make videos to make $$ If you think Audi sit around racing their prototype against other cars you'd be mistaken lol.

To be fair, 0-60 and 1/4 mile times are not the big concern for Audi. They are more focused on the total package when they engineer their vehicles, and they do it very well.
Yes, the M8 is a total beast. |

We have a RS6 Avant on order for my wife. When it arrives will give you all a real comparison vs the M8. But in general BMW and MB are usually faster with more power and aggressive trans setups.

Even my 992 C4S feels like they pushed a bit too much to make numbers... but at least it has a fun dual clutch ZF (PDK) not that ZF 8HP stuff which is in seemingly everything with a 6TT or V8TT these days...
