Is this all that 5.2L v10 lambo engine can produce?

Default have you ever been in a stage 3 car? They are high 11's to 12 sec 1/4 and can do 0-60 in 4 seconds

and less. There is no way audi will ever make the s6 or rs6 that will keep up with a stage 3 s4. Insurance will be outragious and the price would be over the $100,000 mark. Think about what the s6 is and then think about a stage 3 s4. Also remember the E55 amg is slower than a stage 3.

Guess that bodes well for the new RS6, then.

S6, obviously detuned. RS6 should be stronger for sure, but still slower than M5.
