Yeah Mercedes got off the premium train pretty nastily, their angular and dull interiors are no match for the A6/7/8.
The TT V8 is a mythical engine, much talked about most probably not to be seen in my lifetime, i have lost almost all faith.
whats with the V6 TDI with 300 PS ????? where is the engine?

that is just pure unadulterated sex. i don't know what to say. i'd be forced to sell the range rover and get that for the family car.

Is this one of the photoshop versions or is this real? If it is real and we "might" get it in the US Audi made my week.

New A6 is excellent car IMHO. I like it more then any new Audi model-A1, A7 and A8 included. Styling is just right for me.
BUT, I like new BMW 5 series as well and belive it or not new Mercedes CLS is for me the best Mercedes sedan in recent years.
Since I need car in that class for daily driver choice is hard one:
Audi A6 3.0TDI quattro
BMW 535d
Mercedes CLS 350CDI
Need to think hard about what to order...

Photoshop for now but unless the RS styling changes I think what we are seeing here will be pretty close, also Qisha has confirmed that the RS6 will come to the USA.
I too love the CLS, much more than the 5 series but the option of having quattro and the looks of the A6 both inside and out would make the decision an easy one to stick with Audi.
PS: the silver PS is not so far off.
PPS: the new Mercedes CLS will also be offered with 4Matic: as 350 CDI BlueEfficiency and 500 BlueEfficiency. BMW 550i is available with XDrive already, 535i and 535d to follow.
Qisha,
The RS6 version has won me over. I can't wait to see the RS7 and S7 models.
Can Audi do something to improve dealer service in the U.S.?
I'm pretty confident to say that the S6/7 will come equipped with the 4.0TFSi and probably approaching the same 450hp that the RS5 has, but I'm not sure if this engine will be used in the RS6/7. Say that it's slightly lighter than what the M5 ends up at, that would mean it would still required 560/570hp to remain competitive.
560-570hp from 4.0L means 140-142.5hp per litre, doable but surely close to the limit while still being reliable.
Wider fenders please, and no upper beltline/bend in the upper fenders and quarters. They look too much like the C6. I would prefer a smoother roll on the fender flares - and wider. The side view of those taillights is really bad. If the above get changed, I will be very happy to replace my C5. Oh, and 600 hp at 4k lbs or less.
