The last RS6 was blunter than Larry David, this one is said to be better. Can it handle Merc's gorgeous low-rider, the CLS ' Brake?

My wife's been driving fast Audis for over 20yrs (S2 coupe, S4's, S5's etc) and in that time has been offered a fair few races. Six months ago she got an RS6 and the difference in other drivers' attitudes towards her is unbelievable. Now everybody wants to race, she doesn't get let out of junctions - the car actually provokes anger in some drivers. ... if you live in Aberdeen and own a 2 litre turbo diesel - please stop trying to race my wife. Thanks.

Yep, it's a shame that most of us Americans have such a stupid, ignorant perception to station wagons, they obviously have never seen beasts like the RS6 avant. Shame, I want one so bad. Audi should consider making an individual program where U.S customers can at least special order their RS6 avant, or hopefully one day we might get it as a full production U.S car. Don't get me wrong, I'm in love with the RS7, it's monstrous, it's beautiful, it's diabolically fast. But for me, there is NO substitute for an RS6 avant. Such a sleeper, it's a wagon after all! Come on Audi of America, deliver us some more the best of RennSport!!

Audi have really done it with the styling on the new RS6 imo, looks incredible. But the CLS AMG ain't a bad looker either. Just love the way the Audi pulls, that gearbox is amazing, but I also love the muscle car esqueness and sound of the CLS, which would probably make it feel the more special car when pootling around town at 20, and like stated the Merc has a gorgeous interior. Tough choice ...

Benz by far makes the best interiors, ever. BMW usually gets the most looks from the people. Audi quattro system is just too good to pass up. WHY THE TORTURE!

***** 4wd also make's car slower because it's loose more power. Audi would be even faster if it was against that 4 matic. From start 4wd is great but when you get grip in long race like here it just slows you down and rwd will have the edge. Merc didnt catch Audi when it had grip and Audi was just pulling away so 4 matic would lose even more because it loses more power from wheels than this rwd.
@Flyingtom80
@Flyingtom80 8 жыл бұрын
***** Still you didnt understand. Off course Audi lose more power because of 4wd like all the cars with 4wd. But CLS 4matic loses more power than RWD CLS because of drivetrain power loss. 4wd is useless when the car have grip (exaple speeds over 100km/h)and it will only make the car slower and heavier. Thats the fact. This is info from the CLS: "The 4MATIC system also adds 154 pounds, and there are power losses." 4matic is slower in 1 mile drag race than CLS RWD because RWD would overtake it in second half of the mile. Audi was pulling away from start to finish and it will pull away more from 4matic because it is heavier and slower than CLS rwd. That is just simple truth. Yes. CLS is great and fast car, but RS6 is faster. And when you say AWD will allways beat RWD is bullshit. BMW M4 GTS(490hp) beat the shit out Gallardo LP 570-4(560hp) Superleggera, Porsche 911 GT3 RS (991)(500hp) or Audi R8 V10 Plus (Mk II)(600hp) in Nürburgring Nordschleife because of high speed corners and straits where 4wd just slowes you down.

Can you please do a review of the Audi RS6 vs the Merc E class AMG, i know you said the CLS Shooting brake is a better comparison due to its size similarity but in the real world the E class is the natural rival and it would be nice to see a comparison done by you. PS try getting a white audi RS6 for that one

Joe Barbaro And the tiny badges. But those were surprisingly hard to distinguish from Quattro badges in the front grille, and the name of the engine (e.g. 3.0 TFSI) on the bootlid. But seriously, parking sensors?

I do not think "Shooting Brake" means what AMG's marketing department thinks it means. Four doors - that's a wagon dummkopf, not a shooting brake.

A shooting brake is in today's terms used to describe a high performance wagon/hatchback I.e. CTS V Wagon/Ferrari FF

Paul Stefan remember my question is centered around if the crash actually happens and it's a big one. yes, night vision is great for crash avoidance, but I'm thinking more of the idiot that runs the traffic light and hits your wife and children in the intersection....which one do you trust to preserve them??

Really sucks that Americans don't like wagons and would rather drive crossovers. I want a good Audi wagon so bad but all there is here is A4 Avant, or Allroad. And none in manual. Americans never embraced the wagon so now all of North America suffers

Iv always been an AMG person, but if I had the choice I would get the RS6, not only is it a better all-round vehicle, its much better looking than the AMG. But I do believe the AMG sounds better (as always) and its definitely a better drivers car than the RS6!!

Dear Chris. I follow your channel from Denmark and I can't help notice that you again and again complaints about prices on cars these days... Why don't you do your next auto test I Denmark where I live and try to explain the prices on a new car over here. .. an new Audi RS6 cost you 90 grand you say... you can save up 200 grand of you want to buy it in Denmark. ...!!!!! The exact same car..... The Danish government take 180% in taxes on every new car sold I DK. !!!! Plus 25% WAT. !!

No not quite correct.. it's a 105% for the first 80500 dkr..the rest is 180%.. But ok, it still SUCKS..!!! Now before you got to pay this fucking shit high taxes...you got to earn the money first..and of course pay income taxes of them. So would it be wrong to state that the idiots in the danish government demands 300% tax on every damned car?? It's fucking criminal..!
