It depends. They are not very similar apart from the fact that they are both Elite and both cost 1100 tokens.

On the whole, I'd say the RX-8 is slightly more useful. Class D events are overrated, in my opinion, as even a Nissan 370Z will suffice. But, if you do want the best car, there's no denying that the Mazda RX-8 fills that role. However, you still need to be skilled in order to get good leaderboard placements.

On the other hand, the GLC Coupe is a top-tier Multiplayer car. It's very fast at a rank around 1070-1100. It's a little bit slower than the Porsche 959, with worse acceleration, but it's a lot easier to obtain and easier to upgrade. To put that into perspective, the Porsche 959 is the second fastest car at those ranks, behind the Mercedes-Benz SLK 55 AMG Special Edition.

However, the GLC Coupe is overshadowed by the Range Rover Evoque Coupe HSE Dynamic, which is really similar except that it costs credits instead of tokens. I still prefer the GLC Coupe because the GLC Coupe is Elite and can change its rank by around 300 ranking points. Also, I MAX + PROed my Evoque in favour of TLEs like Feuerrm did.

Overall, I'd say it's smarter to choose the Mazda RX-8 and the Evoque as a combo, but you can also go for something like the Donkervoort D8 GTO and the GLC Coupe as well, which is a similar combination with similar prices and performances (the prices are just switched). I own all four cars, with the Mazda RX-8, Donkervoort D8 GTO and Evoque at MAX + PRO, and the GLC Coupe at a Multiplayer tune of 0404 3333 0408, 1099.

Out of all of these cars, the most useful was the Evoque, which carried me through my first Multiplayer season and got me to Pro League. I bought both the Donkervoort D8 GTO and Evoque very early on, so the Donkervoort D8 GTO has been with me for a long time now. However, the Donkervoort D8 GTO was never very useful because I couldn't afford to upgrade it fully. It was always at around halfway-upgraded, so I used my Nissan 370Z. Finally, when I MAX + PROed my Donkervoort D8 GTO, I was already rich enough to buy and MAX + PRO the Mazda RX-8 too, which I did. Neither has been super useful, though, as I don't really try that hard at events. I only go for the single player rewards and most of the leaderboard rewards apart from the highest one. Concerning the GLC Coupe, I obtained it after buying the Ignition Pack for ~$2.50 and I used it as a card dumping ground, at first, which is why my one has PRO kits of 3333. But then, I figured out that its top speed and nitro add the same amount of speed for the same amounts of rank, and then I figured out that the GLC Coupe's Elite-Tuning feature is very powerful, allowing it to change its rank by nearly 300 points. I managed to save my GLC Coupe by upgrading its MAX levels from 0303 to 0404, and now I've basically resurrected my dead Evoque, which I MAX + PROed after accidentally claiming a Free Class C Upgrade, which I then used on my Evoque as to not waste it.
