Ah ! At last some serious snack for the Beast...
However, I am doubtful about the acceleration time. What is the weight of that car ?

The S6 is not available in the US... In the US it is the A6 with a 4.2 engine.. It is longer then the 2.7T or teh 2.8, it has flared fenders, and regular mirrors (not chromed)..
I test drove it, and it aint no M5, not by a long shot...
