Gustav, I'm very confused about the audi rs6. It's been tested to run to 150 mph in 23 seconds as opposed to 19.5 for the m6. The m6 should be faster for all intents and purposes, yet the rs6 seems to defy the statistics. Heck, I even remember when it was tested against the r8, the article specifically stated that the rs6 couldn't pass the r8 on the straights (on the lap they were running).

Could someone enlighten me??? The rs6 0-100 mph is like 9.4 secs, that's hardly fast, neither is 23 seconds to 150 mph.

After researching it some more, I've read that the 200 km/h mark comes up in 14.9 secs for the rs6 according to Audi (yikes, that's as slow as the r8). In the one clip it had trouble walking a 997 gt3 yet it beats the Gallardo and this piece of work from Merc:haha:. On paper the rs6 surely isn't what I would classify as an uber car, yet it performs quite well in real life it seems:dunno:. 580 bhp it may have, but it's also a heavy pig!:7:
