RS6 vs RSQ8

[Badgerman]

How does the RSQ8 out g the RS6 on the skid pad??

I'm definitely thinking RSQ8 or SQ8 with Sport package.
I dooooo like the SUV visibility.
I'll sacrifice .1 sec in the 0-60 and a little top end.
190 is enough for me

I think 190 is the top speed of the RS6 too. And that is only if you get ceramics.

Get the SUV then....

Which do you like better??

At the end of the day these are great cars. You seem to be leaning towards the SUV visibility and hence my comment (not meant to be curt). I like the rs6 as it is a model I’ve followed when not available here in the USA. I had opportunity to get the RSQ8 but ultimately chose the rs6 as my daily driver. I actually find our Q8 easier/better to drive here in our city as it actually feels a bit more compact, not as long and slender and as you say provides greater visibility. We are getting an SQ8 as I feel the Q8 is a bit underpowered. My wife will use that as her daily and chose it over the RSQ8 for her as she won’t need the additional power and the low profile tires will face a greater chance of injury with her behind the wheel (her words).

Thanks for the nice summary.
I believe the feeling of "smallness" relates more to vision angle from eye to the end of the hood.
My old Z06 even though smallish due to low seating felt "big" to manage vis-a-vis our SQ7 which is rather large but quite handy around town.

I think the SQ7/SQ8 with a sport package is a great deal.
Are you getting the SQ8 with the S package??

I'd be interested in hearing a report vs the Q8

Thanks again!
