    It’s time for an almighty V8 showdown!
    We’ve got Mat in the all-new Audi RS7 Performance, and he’s lining up against a BMW M8 Competition & a Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4-Door!
    So let’s see how these ferocious machines compare. Starting with the Audi, it’s packing a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 under the bonnet that can produce 630hp and 850Nm of torque. Power is set to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it weighs in at 2,067kg. If you want to pick one up, it’ll set you back around £133,000.
    Then we have the BMW M8. Under the bonnet, you’ll find a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8, and this can put down 625hp and 750Nm of torque. It comes with four-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it tips the scales at 2,074kg. It’s slightly more expensive than the RS7, with a price tag of £138,000.
    Finally, we have the AMG. It’s powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that produces 639hp and 900Nm of torque. It sends power to all four wheels via a 9-speed automatic gearbox, and it tips the scales at 2,045kg. It’s the most expensive car here, costing around £154,000.
    So the AMG has the most power and the least weight! Surely it’ll be a walkover, right? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

    Nice video but it is a bit frustrating as an GT63s owner, I have GT exactly same as in the video and this is not the full power of this beast ,the one in the race has a problem with boost and turbos one of them is not working well and I had the same problem before in mine and I already fixed it, it's more like a manufacturing problem in almost all GT63s 4-door, also you see at 16:29 in the middle gauge it should be 900Nm stable when full throttle not less with 1Nm at all, As an AMG owner and On behalf of all AMG lovers we demand carwow team to bring another clean and healthy GT63s and do this race again!!!

      I only own an S5, but it has a standard Drive mode, and a Sport drive mode. Does the AMG also have those options when putting it into drive? I feel like the AMG is in a comfort mode or something like my Audi can also use. That AMG should be nasty

      formula 1 blackout lights are random, when the red lights turn off (called lights out or blackout) it is random, so the drivers have to just react as fast as they can which works because they are timed individually by each car. If they were all timed by one stopwatch, like in carwow videos, It wouldn’t be as accurate because you can’t guarantee they will all launch at the exact same time. With the 3,2,1 countdown, and the arm drop to start the race, It gives them time to prepare for the launch and have them launch at almost the exact same time, which will show the cars pulling away from each other / crossing the 1/8 mile a whole lot better. It also lets them only need one stopwatch, since they all take off at the same time. Vs the lights out, where the racers have no time to prepare cuz the lights just go off randomly leading to different launch times = different 1/8 mile times. 🤓🤓🤓

    My parents have a RS7 and that thing is absolutely insane to drive. Any time I get into the driver seat my heart rate instantly skyrockets because I know what the driving experience is like. It’s a legitimate street legal race car.

      @@marshallzink7282 It’s fast as hell. And they don’t even have the ‘Performance’ edition. Just a RS7

    Matt, thats not fare for BMW. RS7 performance should be competing with M8 competition.. then we can decide which is faster. But that audi back cat sound is something else

    That exterior color and interior are absolutely God Tier quality and combo for the M8! That Burgundy looking color looks amazing under the ☀️ (Reminds me of my favorite Mercedes color 'Rubelite Red Metallic')

    There is something horribly wrong with both the AMG and M8 they are severely underperforming
