I don’t really care which one wins — the F-Type is still one of my dream cars. OK, maybe I care a little…but it won’t change my mind!

I would not consider you safe in the Jag… Looks like you can be tailgated till about 100mph, and in the states there is no where to go 100+.

Audi for sure. One of the most unreliable cars on the road

Yes, now do it with the RS6+… I was surprised by the outcome of this tbh.

A wagon vs a coupe and only this little margin pfff this Jag is a joke if you compare weight with performance the RS6 is ahead by a mile.

It lost. The Jag has slightly less power but is also nearly 1/3 of a ton lighter.

Looking at choosing between these cars next year, so loving the tests - think the Audi would have won both if they used Audi’s launch control
