Another M5 that was there did race the guy in the RS6 on the way home also, he said that after 168 mph the RS6 was long gone
Those speeds are really of no consequence in real world driving. Lack of low end torque hurts us again.

I´m aware of that but it also depends on where you drive. On the highway, the RS6 is toast.

But, it will be interesting to see what it can manage in the hot summer wether, I´m sure it won´t be faster then the M5, even from 30 mph! We´ll see.

What do you mean finally, audi has always managed to win. and i still cant believe people are coming up with excuses about the rims. grow up give them props a station wagon beat a sedan, just imagine what the rs6 plus is going to do the f10 m5.

Please behave.

Audi RS models have constantly been behind when we ried them:

Audi RS4 vs BMW M5 E39
Audi S6 vs BMW M5 E39
Audi RS4 Avant vs M5 Touring.

THis time they seemd to got it right
