Incorrect in my view. The CS is my 4th F8x car and it is a noticeably better machine. I didn't see much of a difference going from a non Comp F8x to a Comp F8x, but the CS difference is there and noticeable. It's how the car should have come orginally.

As for the question at hand, I purchased a G82 Comp brand new when they came out in 2021. I only had the car two months, it was a horribly ugly machine which has only got worse with age and the performance felt nearly identical to my Comp car. If you want to go fast in a straight line, the x drive is the only option for the G8x unless you want to tune a non x drive car. F8x with a DCT is fast than a manual G8x, and just a hair behind the G8x comp cars in straight line speed (not noticeable). X drive is what makes the difference, and those cars are seriously fast.

I wouldn't trade my CS for any G8x car. No matter how fast you can make a G8x, it will never outrun the ugly.
