It's the same zf 8 speed auto with almost the same engine and you get the comfort too. I'm a big audi fan boy, but the amg nail everything with the c63s coupe & if they can reduce weight a bit, the c63s would be a monster. Finger cross for a black series, although it's unlikely

That was a fun watch. I love the RS5 and I do think it is the better looking car. If I still lived in snow country, the quattro would matter.

But they nailed it. The C63s is the better car. Most telling was the high speed test. The Audi floated. The Mercedes was rock solid.

And I need that safe 170mph on my daily commute.

Great video, I would have to agree after owning the sedan and the coupe... the coupe feels much more planted to the road when driving it hard.

I wish we got different colour ED1's here in Oz, definitely agree the yellow is bit much.
