Default RS7 vs A7+new toy

Dealer asked me today if I wanted to order my RS7 (I skipped the S7 because if I am going to be hit financially trading in my A7 I'd rather do it with something like the RS7)

So RS7

OR

Keep my A7 + classic muscle car, my options are Mustang fastback 1967/68 (completely restored) or Shelby Cobra replica with a monster engine, original Shelbys are out of the question, and the new replicas are amazingly beautiful plus all the components are modern.

What do you guys think?

Agree. A7 for work and family and the Cobra just for entertainment. I do the same with the S6 and the Z06.

So nobody for the RS7? Funny how 40-50k difference in perspective (another car) change people's minds because I am sure everybody here loves the RS7.


Bear in mind that the cobra is a replica, the price of an original is prohibitive, the mustang is an original S-code with a 390 ci engine.
I am way more towards the cobra I don't care the car is not original.

One of my best friends has a replica Cobra and it matters none to him (or me), replica or not the car is just the ****!!

Again, keep the A7 and get the Cobra. Now, let's start talking about how we're going to get both our A7's up to RS7 spec!!

Only half kidding btw.

No much after what I did without compromising the engine, I already have intake exhaust and tune, only thing missing will be a pulley, and that's it, I love my car, and I will love more my Cobra, a friend of mine has a replica too and it is AMAZING.
