Looking for a used Audi for sale in South Africa? We have over nearly 2300 to choose from!
www.cars.co.za/usedcars/Audi/
Here we go! Another Cars.co.za drag race. This time it's two monster German SUVs going head-to-head on the quarter mile (400m).
This is quite an interesting matchup. The Mercedes has the power and torque advantage, but the Audi RSQ8 is a good 200kg lighter, which will certainly help it off the line.
So sit back, grab some popcorn and enjoy this very loud, very heavy, very expensive and very close drag race.

It's my first Mercedes but probably also my last - mainly because the service at my dealership sucks and when I'm paying this much for a car, I expect better service. So I'll have fun with it for about 2-3 years then when I am ready to trade it in for something new I will be checking out the RSQ8 and X6M. Thanks for your video.

@ISPy x DRxKKo As an M car should be. Why would people spend 120,000 $ on a high performance SUV as soft as a family SUV? This generation GLE63s made this mistake, it focuses on luxury more than performance. And what's the result? People buy X6M way more than GLE63s Coupe. No matter X4M or X6M, they must be as stiff as they are. Otherwise customers won't buy it, it's that simple.

[@talkditingsdem5799]

@@jamisonz3365 You sound silly. Nobody wants a stiff car and if you knew what you were talking about you would know that almost all reviewers and owners complain about how stiff the new M cars are and how jaw jarring they are on normal roads. It was such a big deal that BMW changed the entire suspension in the LCI f90 m5 cp because it was so bad. I'm sure you never even driven any of the new M cars to know what you're talking about.

[@jamisonz3365]

@Talkditings dem Actually they don't care what some journalists say, it's BS. Many journalists say Lotus or Jaguars or some FCA high performance cars are good. But what in reality? Nobody buys these cars and those are facing bankruptcy. What the real world buyers want is the most important thing to OEM. This generation X5/6m is more dominant than ever in the segment. According to sources they will sell over 35000 units. It's insanely good if you know how minority this market is. The new gen Cayenne Turbo and GLE63s are less stiff and less powerful, they're more comfortable. But what's the result? They sell so few cars. I can assure you the whole generation 63s will be struggling to sell 10000 units and the turbo even less. The point is, most customers spend this money to buy a super SUV/ super sedan. They don't want a suspension feels normal. It's how the majority of customers of this market thinks.
