The only guys that are different are the owners of 90s Japanese sport imports because those cars are extremely hard to come by now. Those owners are different because their culture is different.

It isn't any different than the S55 actually.

As with almost all exhaust videos, the recording device is unable to capture the entire audio range correctly so the exhaust sounds worse than it would usually be.

The S58, so far anyway, has a deeper tone but that is it. It isn't any different than the S55 exhaust noise.

IMO even the F80 engine bay looks way better to me than the G80.
I remember thinking the first time I saw the F80's engine bay, I was really wowed by its looks with the cf bit and top mount intercooler.
Contrary to the new G80's is like any other engine, just average.

We did without CF engine braces for decades. The G8X not having one isn't a deal breaker.

For some TBT action for this thread... now these are some freaking family photos - they are all very obviously related, you can see the family genes are strong in each one. It's actually really cool looking at these now that F8X is the outgoing generation. It's cool to see how and when certain elements were introduced and how they've evolved

Say what you want about the G8X but it does not belong together with these no matter how much one might like the G series.

Hey, I'm holding onto my F8X for the time being (...and I barely drive it as it is). Not because I hate the G8X's design elements, but because I'm focused on my race bikes right now. I've received offers to sell the F8X, but I've declined them thus far.

They are the same company. The RS6, RS7, RSQ8, Panamara Sport Turismo and the Urus are essentially all the same car, just a different flavor of it (all four doors with a tailgate). Same for the Audi eTron GT, it's a rebranded Taycan. It's only a question of time before we get an eTron GT Avant IMO. I see the RS6 as the last hurray to ICE RS cars before the switch to EV.

No experience, but has to be the most overpriced performance auto in the world right now. Avg list price of like 250k, 130k more than an X6 M!? Must pay dividends at the club.

I thought this was a rear photo of an Acura with a cheap aftermarket tail. I was thinking where's the bimmer?

People must really want the badge on a SUV I guess, it sells well enough.

On the topic of laughable, a 250k SUV driving experience is not as bad as these ones however
