and yes, that's the RS7 not the S7 (more expensive and not much more performance) and yes, the RS7 is 300lbs lighter than the B6 xDrive.

However, we when talk straight line performance.... this is what I'm talking about.

And sorry cjackson1906, I missed that you already posted this video.
FYI, RS7 is the fastest (or one of the fastest) AWD, Sedan cars currently incurrent market with amazing Quattro component; however in rolling start still M6 beats her.From standstill RS7 is faster than M6 (0-60 , 0-100) but not in rolling (ie 5-60, 60-130 mph,etc)... but what's the point of re-posting this video? I think now you want to compare M6 with RS7 right?
Or if you brought the example of RS7 to say B6 is doing the samething, then you are completely wrong! 4800 lb is a lot heavy!

Also again for your information when you say "not much more performance" (RS7 over S7), keep in mind that RS7 has 100 lb-ft more torque and 110 HP more power than S7.... and you say "not much more" ?


Dude, again I ask you to do yourself a favor and go and test drive M6. Then S7 and B6 and M4 and RS7 and.... then come back to me and talk about your experiences.... it's funny that every time you start a new subject " M6 vs xx?".... (xx is changing every time) and as soon as I answer you and question you, you immediately change that subject and start new one lol
I highly believe you need to test drive to feel the difference between ZF8 and DCT...

I just leave this link (C&D) here for you; however it's re-posted but since you are relying on C&D, it's some food for thought
