I would like to see this race done again in better conditions.

You can see that the Porsche hit a small water puddle so I have a good feeling he probably let off a little right there.

I have a dilemma ... can't make decision .... RS7 or 911 Turbo S . Panamera is not an option at all, only those two....

Both! Totally different, practical sedan with room for 4 and excellent storage, or superb handling sports car. 911 is better feeling car with handling, braking, excellent PDK tranny. Arguably the best all around sports car with awd, 2.5 0-60 and 10-6 quarter stock recently tested in C&D. Great vehicle. Both have superb engines. RS7 is great all around practical vehicle with unbelievable acceleration, esp with APR flash. RS7 if you can have only one vehicle, as it overall is more practical.

Hey folks.... Long time, no post--I recently drove an RS7, and it's quite impressive! That being said, I also tested a 2015 Panny GTS for comparison. While the Porsche is undoubtedly slower off the line, it just felt more assured, balanced, and refined in ride quality. Up until that point, I always thought I may return to Audi, but I completely fell in love with the GTS, but the RS is just so much sexier; and the Porsche is a bit long in the tooth/overdue for a refresh (Both aesthetically and technologically). Quite the dilemma, indeed.

Just curious if you test drove a RS7 with Dynamic Package with DRC. That along with the Dynamic Steering in the 2016 RS7 might convince you to come back to RS7.

It was a 2015, and yes, it had DRC... Again, it performed as expected--Beautifully! My issue was/is with refinement. My A7's black seats started fading at 30K miles, and there were supercharger problems between 7-12K. Waiting on the reliability reports from the 2015/16s before getting too set on the Audi.
