My brother's pretty decent at A8. He has nearly 100 cars and his strategy from the beginning was to get all of the best credit TLE cars in each class. He also started doing Multiplayer with the Evoque before I did.

On the other hand, I have way more than 100 cars now, I buy skins for cars all the time, even one with tokens, and I don't own any of the best credit TLE cars. I don't own the Mercedes-AMG (neither does he; we both have Lotus Evora Sport 410s), I don't own the Mercedes CLA and I don't own the McLaren 675LT. I do own both the Donkervoort D8 GTO and Mazda RX-8, however.

Although I didn't go for any of the killer cars, what I did do better than my brother was upgrading cars. I upgraded so many cars that I'm now at 1171 licenses after 5 months. This got me the Cobra, Datsun, Camaro Z/28, etc. Also, I went all-out on many events, getting the C 63 Coupe, 918 Spyder, etc. I also got the Renault Alpine Celebration and Alfa Romeo 4C from TLEs + Bps.

For the Barcelona Suzuki GSX event, my brother got a time that was so quick that he placed in the top 200-300 I think, by the end of the cup. I was somewhere in the top 1000-2000, probably. Also, for the recent cup with the Geely GC9 as the best car, I ended up in the top 400 with the Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2016 Veloce. These rankings might give you some idea of how good we are at playing A8.

Overall, the C 63 Coupe is actually able to outrun the McLaren 675LT, but I stress ONLY on specific maps. I haven't tested Sector 8, but I was able to outrun my brother when we were both triple-boosted in heat TLEs, in the following maps: Venice and Dubai. In Area 51, the map where the McLaren 675LT has an advantage, my brother only beat me by 1 second. By the way, the C 63 Coupe is definitely able to outrun the McLaren 675LT in Multiplayer TLEs, where acceleration is deadly, and in Multiplayer League, where the C 63 Coupe can achieve what I believe to be a higher speed at the same rank (low ranks).

By the way, the C 63 Coupe is so good that this happened:
