The S8 is a nice car, but it's not on par with BMW. No two ways about it, BMW and Mercedes both outclass Audi easily. They are just more refined cars. My 2023 S8 feels like it's about 10 years older than a 2023 Merc S580. The tech on the Merc is simply astonishing. BMWs just plain drive better. Nowhere does it feel more apparant than on the highway at speed. A BMW feels solid, planted, unflappable. My Audi S8 feels light, squirrely, and frenetic. Audi feels like a stiff wind could blow it off the road, while the BMW feels like a tank. It' not that the Audi is a bad car, it just feels different.

Interesting to hear. Although the s8 isn’t an RS7. I don’t know alot about the Audi lineup. How much different is the s8 vs rs7? S8 is like a regular 5/7 series vs m5 m8 no?
