  • On this episode of Head 2 Head, Jonny Lieberman sets out to discover which German hot-rod-personal-luxury-coupe is the best you can get. The 507 Coupe is the last iteration of the W204 C63. With the exception of the very limited-run Black Series, it's the best C63 that AMG has ever done. Under its hood sits a hand-built, 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V-8 good for 507 horsepower. What more do you want? Perhaps something more high-tech, and that's where the Audi RS5 comes in. The sexy coupe from Quattro GmbH in Neckarsulm features a 4.2-liter V-8 that spits out 450 hp. That¹s less power than the 507 Coupe makes, true, but the Audi also features AWD, a dual-clutch transmission, bigger wheels and tires, plus a trick torque-vectoring rear differential. Which one is quicker? Which one is more fun to drive? Which one is best? Watch and find out!

    I can live with the cons you mentioned on the Audi, but I could never live with a poor transmission system. When it comes to transmission and the clutch, that's where I need my car to shine. I'm also a huge fan of great acceleration, I can deal with the car being slightly off it's steering when at high speeds (even though that's something I'd of course prefer to be without) and I simply love the RS5's look. That's why I have to make it my choice out of this selection. Witch ever one you choose i guess it all comes down to what you value most in a car.

    At this level I think it comes down to personal preference.
    For me it would be the RS5 hands down. No matter the opinion of any reviewer.
    Besides the only AMG product that could ever excite me was the SLR.
    Some will agree some will hate me for that.
    But that's ok.
    It's all about personal preference.

      teknown You were ill-informed or just so mesmerized by the 4.2's output that you couldn/t accept it was not turbocharged.. The 4.2 is a normally-aspirated FSI engine.. Fuel Stratified Injection is when fuel is directly injected into the cylinders and not the intake ports. So efficient that its exempt from gas guzzler tax the Merc faces... next you'll be saying Audi employs a band of Haitian voodoo witchdoctors that can extract more power than advertised.. Truth in Engineering.. spooky hu?

    • @Andrea1491to
      @Andrea1491to Před 10 lety +1

      johnny rex very true, but the AMG division had to power down the 6.2 litres for the C63 because otherwise it would have flied! the original 6.2 liters AMG engine is much more powerful. This one is turned down to a similar power as the M3 and RS5. Anyway, it's faster without any "but".

      ***** Better launch means lower trap speed? How could that possibly make sense? Both have the same distance to accelerate. Greater acceleration at any point in that given distance will yield a faster final speed. I think you meant to say, "More weight and lower efficiency usually means a slower trap speed." AWD cars have slower trap speeds because of these two disadvantages, not because of a better launch.

      Bodybuilder X no...
      The Audi looks smooth, elegant, sporty, athletic and timeless.
      The Merc looks like something that just came out of a 'Fast and the Furious' movie with the try hard bodykit - tacky as hell. Just throw some underbody neons on it and the picture will be complete.
      Unfortunately in recent times Mercedes has completely forgotten how to build a stylish car - just look at the A45, GLA45, CLA45, etc. All disgusting looking cars.
      They have done a solid job with the brand new C Class and recently introduced E Class so ill give them credit for that...but everything else they have churned out lately looked atrocious.
      I wouldn't say the C63 in this comparison video looks 'attrocious' by any means, it's just dissapointing because the base shape of the C Class coupe was very nice, ago they could have made it a great looking car if they didn't overdo the tacky try-hard look.
      Audi understands how to build a great looking car without resorting to those cheap and tacky tactics, which i appreciate. They've built some not so sexy cars too (A1 range, Q3, Q7, etc) but the vast majority of their model range lokks fantastic - and IMHO the A5 range is still the best looking coupe money can buy until you get up into Porsche 911 / Maserati territory.

    Audi for me 100% its down on power up on weight and still puts in work... plus the Audi is a much better looking car IMO. And don't forget QUATTRO!!
    NOW do all those tests again in the rain.
    And that tried and true 4.2L V8 with its flawless transmission
    👌

    That rs5 looks super beautiful. The perfect one would be the rs5 with the mercs engine and a manual 6!!!

    Now THIS RS5 is waaaaaay better looking than that new thing I see just released. And you cant deny the sound of that V8 #Epic
