I believe the title is as unreliable as the video was. Typo on the 'maseradi' and the video no longer shows. However the writer is not liable for such since it's not his URL.

By the way, the S8 looks like a sexy beast!. However the CLS AMG looks hot too lol.

top gear have done a test of the s550 v s8 v quattro porte gransport. (for some reason i get my issues about 20 days early, i suscribe. right now i have just got the january issue, which should come out on dec 1st).
the s8 won, because the s class was too luxury, the quattroporte too sporty with a crap interior, the s8 was the perfect balance.

The CLS embodies the concept of Merc's in the past..This car is seriously not given the recognition it should have..A perfect blend of a coupe like exterior, with a somewhat spacious four seater compartment..It is beautifull both inside and out, and undeniably powerfull..I seriously suggest the CLS for the best four-door car on the market..Its an example of what a Mercedes should be. Perfect..

Of course it's not AmazingBimmer, the Audi S8 just defeated both the Mercedes-Benz S550 and Maserati Quattroporte Sport courtesy of Top Gear.

Nut.. isnt the right comparison against a cls amg? like I said, not in the same league. The s8, however woudl surely win against a more formidable competitor . the VW Phaeton!

you can say whatever, but according to Top Gear, the Audi S8 is a better all-around car than the Mercedes-Benz CLS 63 AMG.

Rupert, that makes things even better. The S8 takes down the heralded Benz S-class and even an AMG CLS.

maybe if the s8 was compared to the s63 amg, it would have been more fair in a sense, since the MB would be a luxury sedan with a focus on performance like the s8.
i know teh s63 hasnt come out yet(im not sure) but i know it would be btter than comparing the s8 to the s65 amg due to the s65 pricetag of $180,000+.
