most people who look to purchase an m5 look more towards the rs6 as audi's contribution of competition, no?
Agreed.
I havn't driven a M5, but I have driven a RS6. And it's a heavy highway cruiser. Every bit as big, luxurious and german you would expect from an Audi. But it's fast, unbeleavebly fast for a car it's size.
It's faster then a M5 straight ahead, and it's just as fast around a track.
But I wouldn't race it, it's just to numb, unlike the M5.
The upcoming RS4 on the other hand
