Place your bets - RS6 or M5 faster in Sport Autos upcoming test?

[Erik]

According to rumors, Sport Auto is going to test the new Audi RS6 Avant vs. the BMW M5 (unkowns if sedan or touring).

Ladies and Gentlemen, place your bets and tell us what you think.

Who will be the winner 0 - 200 km/h?
(I don't expect a draw, so ruled out that option)

[Tony Lam]

if they test between RS 6 and E63AMG i will think that the E63AMG may win the test ....what do u guys think about it??

[Audifan92]

I think the RS6 can take the M5 Touring 0-200.

[Trebor]

RS6 0-200km/hr
Going to replace my current RS6
Just completed the contract for the new one, delivery not until July / Aug :eye:

[Leadfoot]

I still reckon the RS6 will be the quicker at any of the acceleration disciplines, be it standing starts or in-gear times. But that is only my opinion, I don't know it for a fact.

But I bet I know a man who does.

[Leadfoot]

Who the f#'k said the M5 would win.

Erik, ban them right away.

[Charles DLF]

it's going very close i think, but i think those 70 ponies more, and that extra bit of torque should make for the RS

[cornishmoocher]

I think the M5, no wait the RS6, no the M5, nah the RS6, definately the RS5M6 evoAMG536, oh i don't F*ckin know, but i want the RS6!!!!!!!!

[Ruergard]

This might be one of the closest comparsions ever, going to be sooooo interesting!

But for the performance, 0-200 km/h i guess there will be very even, Audi should have the upperhand here. But from rolling starts and over 200 km/h the RS6 is going to have a tough time. Those high revs and that quick SMGIII with seven gears really does the trick there for the beemer. But as said, I can't wait!

Ah. ok. I think the RS6 will- just. (i did vote that way!)

[JavierNuvolari]

I believe it'll be the RS 6 . Although I would like to see some trakc times comparison rather than an accelerartion one.

Leadie - have you noticed that if you click on the number of people who voted for each choice, then it tells you who voted what? Interesting...

I have just received a PM regarding this and to be honest I think we will have to reading into the report more closely than just looking at the actual figures.

Hopefully that might give you a hint as to the actual results.

From another post...

.........RS6 ... M5 ... AMG E63
0-100 4,4s ... 4,9s ..4,4s
0-200 14,3s ..14,7s .15,1s

RS6 is fastest on track, has best brakes and consumption...
