Not even in the same class. This car is way faster more power and handles way better. Looking for the video where it shows the test of both cars

Is it coming here though. Last I knew it wasn't or at least the wagon version wasn't. Any confirmation. Would be a nice daily...

Oh snap!

I will take mine as an Estate (that is what the Brits call wagons, because we are probably not getting them here)

I still would rather have an M5 Wagon

The regular S6 is better looking IMO, only the grill is ugly on the S6

So this gets the twin turbos ,, and the new S4 is going to have a supercharger?

I wonder how they came to this conclusion at Audi?
