I canceled my order when Covid hit, at the time I managed $10k off on a custom build and still had a hard time justifying the car (impulse buy 992 now has my full attention). In the meantime picked up the new G63.
ha! I couldn't sleep last night and went down the dark spiral of online shopping for a G63.

something about those things... love em.

Its funny.. The Urus is clearly a monster but that new RS6 seems to be very consistently disappointing from a performance perspective.. will be interesting to see when they lauch the super duper perfomance + model if its more competitive.

Clearly it is not living up to its hype. I like the looks though.... But the Urus said goodbye.

Urus is a beast and they are fantastic in the flesh. Has anyone ran the Cayenne turbo S e hybrid battery the Urus yet?

I think the issue is that now that the main competitors (AMG E, M5) are now AWD, the RS6/7 have in a sense lost their advantage in performance. That said, the RS6 is gorgeous, the more performance wagons the better!

Take a look underneath one. An engineering masterpiece, crazy how they built a new car while retaining all the looks from the previous gen. Added bonus they hold their value...

I have a sick love affair with the Urus!
I know exactly what you mean... I drove the URUS two months ago and can't get it out of my head. Definitely on my short list of possible cars to purchase in the fall.
