Still a great car! But the Z goes 0-60 in about 5.2 sec with those guys in it lol...geez. His stomach almost touches the steering wheel. I wonder if Chris Harris will test out the Z....

Chris Harris would be a good one for sure. You'll end up seeing Matt Farah with it...which is fine but...no Chris Harris by any stretch. Maybe we'll get lucky.

He thinks the downforce is the car's aerodynamics. I think it's those prodigious abs.

They keep stating the rehashed 'A8 will do 2.95" but they never do a few runs in the review video to try hitting those numbers - and they have the auto right there with them! I've only seen Carlos Lago do 3.1 secs. driving the M7 in a review video, that's why I give him props for that.

C'mon reviewers, if you have the A8, then run the quarter and 0-60 a few times to give us some realistic #s.
