The car
About this car in Cannes
The villas above Cannes — La Californie, Super Cannes, the road up towards Le Cannet — are reached by narrow switchbacks that climb three hundred metres in a couple of kilometres, usually with a wall on one side.
An RS Q8 takes them faster than most sports cars and arrives with five people and their luggage intact: 600 hp, quattro traction and air suspension that keeps two and a half tonnes composed where a softer SUV wallows.
In Mythos Black it is the discreet version of something very quick. The drop-off point and the price are settled before you travel.
- Built for the switchbacks up to La Californie
- 600 hp, quattro, five seats, 605 litres
