It´s got a lot more torque as we know so it got the start pretty easy. I was there with my stock M5 and raced the RS6, I started catching up when we reached 140 mph. If the runway had been longer I would have past him. The M5 is quicker 140+ mph!
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.

Damn!!! Is it me not seeing clearly or did the hood unlock at +320km/h? You could actually see the error code and the 7th gear flashing on & off! That's insane!!!

Wow. A whole new generation of supercars. No surprise about the LP-560, that thing is insanely fast especially if it's walking the 997 Turbo easily.
But Audi RS6 Avant? The wagon version? Can't believe that they actually and finally beat us...May the next F10 M5 absolutely rape Audi.
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.
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
