Hi there...


I read recently an article comparising the RS2, RS4 and RS6. Don't you think that the RS6 is a backwards-step in RS history ? For me it is just a car that does not have the feel of RS2, or RS4... only automatic transmission... where is the sport-soul of this car? What do you think ? I've driven the RS2 and I loved it... and I've tried toe RS6 also, but... it's not the same... it's just a comfortable, horrbily expensive car... if you think different, feel welcome to say it :)

This is the first RS model to make it to the USA, so the RS2 & RS4 are not really cars that we can consider comparing to the RS6.

As for me, I consider the RS6 to be a practical sports car. My Boxster-S is loads of fun, but I can't take it on a day trip with the family.

Oswald, you are waving the Red cape at the Bull. The car is what it is. Most will love it, some will shun it for various reasons. Obviously in a website named RS6.com you are preaching to a congregation of a religion that is contrary to your own beliefs. I have a A6 4.2 and TT roadster and a Nissan Murano. Love all of them for different reasons . Do you know who Danny Sullivan is ? Guess what sedan he bought ( thieves stole it from after he had owned it for a short period of time in Monaco ) . He is a former Indy 500 winner and a Formula 1 driver who found the car great to drive. I think most of us will be adequately impressed. Wait for the next M5, it also will be a great car. Cheers ! :addict:
