notes:
oversteering with rear sport diff. (now audi has old bmw handling feature)
not so good laptime because of air suspension

just for comparison: in the same issue there is the test of m6 cabrio vs sl63amg performance
sl faster on the track! 5 sec
bmw so heavy!

C7 S6 seems to me like best S6 ever, C5 and C6 never atracted this amount of attention, and C4 is from time when RS 6 wasn't on offer!
I didn't saw any comparation, but reading and watching all this tests of new S6 it looks like its "sweeped" its natural rivals, BMW 550i/550i xDrive and MB E 500/E 500 4MATIC...

F10 is on offer since 03/2010, but summer '13 to early, IMHO... First half of '14 was more realistic for me.
Facelifted E class will be shown by the end of the year and officialy presented at Detroit motor show, that is also earlier then I expected, but this with 5 series comes as a big suprise!
