Thanks for that, and thanks for including the size of the wheels although I wasn't able to draw any conclusion.

Interesting to see an automatic perform anything between 17 to 20 seconds in the 0 - 200 km/h run. A little too much spread I think.

0 - 100 the RS6 is clearly much faster than the competition, except maybe MB S600/E55 which are insanely fast.

Swedish AMS tested the RS6 recently and was given 51 points vs. M5's 50.

more or less consistant results, except of course for those who did 7.3 seconds to 100 km/h :o They must have been fast asleep.
Now watch the M5 brigade quote that figure left, right and centre

I don't think they were asleep, they very busy getting it back to a full stop

The 7.3 sec. is a 0 - 100 km/h - 0 time.
