Tim Schrick - M8 Gran Coupe vs GT63S vs RS7 on track
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com Sorry for those that do not understand German. I figured I'd post anyway because Tim Schrick is a hell of a driver and very thorough and insightful in his reviews about how cars drive and behave on track.

Nice aggressive driving! Unfortunately, I can't understand most of it but it looks really interesting on how the cars drive

It only selects German. On the Iphone anyways. There is no other option.

Nice. Tim Schrick is a well respected enthusiast in Germany with really good driving skills. He understands very well how to describe the driving characteristics of a car (he doesn't care that much about all the modern luxury features).

Whats his final take on all three? My guess is he liked the GT63S for the track but maybe finds the GC more civil for the real world.

He liked the M8 the most. It gave him the most natural feeling, has the best steering, has a better weight distribution than the Audi and it is very controllable in the curves and when accelerating out of the curves for its weight and size (but he didn't quite like the RWD mode, prefered the AWD sport mode).

The GC is freaking 201 inches (close) while the GT63S is near at 199 and the RS7 at 197.

Nice video. Tried watching with captions but was too many errors to really catch what he was saying.
That Audi really is beautiful, but seriously, please put the engine back a little further and put it on a proper RWD platform (MSB). This is probably one of, if not the biggest, reason I haven't ever cared too much for an Audi RS car.

His conclusions are that the BMW has the most natural handling on the track. It doesn’t understeer as much and you can make the rear nicely follow the line by careful braking/throttle (in 4wd sport, he didn’t like the way the 2wd mode handled that track). He says Merc cannot do this in the same way and Audi can do it a bit better but is too front heavy. BMW for the win.
