RS5 vs RS7
I am looking for my next Audi and am struggling between the RS5 and RS7. I had an 2003 RS6 and loved it. I like the idea the extra room of the RS7 (not to mention the extra ponies), but am unsure as to whether the cost difference will be worth it. Although RS7 pricing is not out, I am suspecting that it will be 20-25K more than the RS5. Or maybe I should just get an A8L 4.0T which has similar performance to my RS6 and loads of room! I am so confused. Any thoughts? (also posted on RS5 board)
Thanks.

FWIW, the RS7 is probably going to be around the $100k mark. Sounds outrageous until you compare it to the competition, which is centered on the M6 grand coupe...which with options is going to go as high as $130k. Ouch! Personally I think the RS7 is gorgeous, but as others have said it is bigger and will not be as tossable as the RS5, which is more of an M3 competitor.
