If you value performance first, the RS6 will blow away my S8. If you value
unbelievable interior appointments with a high degree of capabilities, and a
stealth look, you'll like the S8 better.
I have a black on black C5 Corvette, with Corsa Indy Tigershark exhausts and
my S8. Guess which one I can get away with traveling faster in without
drawing law enforcement?

I loved the last A8, but I prefer the new one. If I were looking for a (fairly)
quick luxury car, the A8 would probably be my pick, mostly because of it's
looks and it's interior quality. Although the 745i is probably a better
driver's car. I like the new A6 too, and I'd probably take one over a 5-series
just to avoid having to deal with iDrive. Although a 545i 6-speed is pretty
tempting as simply a driver's car.
