I can't believe it... my bet is Audi testing waters to see if there will be interest in US...

All I have to say.. "If you build it - they will come"!!!!

Actually, if you read the Car & Driver review, the new 2013 Audi S6 can already go head-to-head with the BMW M5 at 3.7 seconds 0-60. Quarter mile - the S6 will do 12.1 sec, while the M5 at 12.0. The S6 will be around $78,000 loaded, while while the M5 is at around $98,000 (a $20,000 difference). The S6 be a better value than the M5 - putting $20,000 back to your pocket. The RS6 will be a Super-Beast.

C&D chooses the S6 over the M5 and e63

Now, the RS6 might get to 2.9 - 3.1 seconds I think with 140 more HP than the S6. Here's a photo.

That would be great. I was disappointed that Audi was giving the S6 less hp then the S7 or S8...it's all for a reason!
