Default Thought so...

It was way too high. Wonder what they would have thought about a PSK car with SP9000s?

Good info. Thanks!

I think we're all wondering that. Guess it would've beat the others by a further margin!

Nice work Frank C! Seems to me that if BMW has sport package, so should have Audi?!

Default PSP was sport package at the time

The test was conducted too early to get PSK.

No trickery here.
Hopefully the A6 2.7T will do even better next year. Perhaps it can stand up to the 530i after all.
