Porsche 911 Turbo S 2014! E63S 14, Audi S8 13, CLS63 12, E550 12, C63 09, all tuned
Both cars have weak/strong points. But gee whiz electronics does not make a great car. Both now have internet, why? I just drove 1200 miles in my Audi S8
Try dialing an extension on Audi. Try hanging up if you not on the telephone screen . Try setting cruise control on 79mph without being at 79mph in Audi!
Try driving in stop and go traffic with distronic on in Audi.Wow, did I wish I had my E63S with driver assist today.
Oh, MB reads texts to you now.
And. The real kicker, Audi's steering wheel really sucks.
Saw the new MB S550 yesterday at the dealer. I am afraid to drive it.

Karl: are you back down south. There is a caravan going to FL2K from the west coast thru Naples and then going to Bradenton on 10/12/13. Wonder if you'd be interested in coming with one of your monsters.

audi steering wheel controls do suck. that ****ing click wheel is a pain in my ***. surprised you don't like your s8 though. i don't have personal experience with it, but it seems like it'd be a great car.

Oh, I the love S8, the drive train is fabulous.
But I been driving MBs for the last 15 years and I know all the controls.
S8 is like a 2nd wife, but at the same time I still nailing the 1st one.
