We have heard that the rumors about a twin turbo V10 are false, and that the RS6 will instead be powered by a blown V8 producing over 600hp. Could Audi finally be joining the proverbial German horsepower pissing contest? We can only hope!
Yay pissing contest!

There's no way a regular person can handle 600Whp, right? Can you even use 600 at the track?
Two feet.

Andy. it's not about be able to "use" that power. ho ho!
it's about being able to drive up to the local bachanalia to meet your self-made millionaire polo buddy and say, "my word i just had a wonderful jaunt in my 600 whp executive saloon car! whats that? your CL500 has 100 less? why, that's inferior engineering! your taste is flawed my good man."

Pardon me, do you have any grey poupon?
chris, you should get one! that way you'd never have to press the pedal more than 1/12th of the way to the floor to extract the wsame performance you get out of the S4.
250/600 = ~1/3 power * 1/4 he already presses his pedal = 1/12 he'd have to press in the rs6!

It's supposed to do fishtailing u-turns in a suburban intersection? Interesting.
Just cause I don't redline it on the way to lunch doesn't mean it doesn't get driven.

a) Basing how often someone does something based on ONE instance is silly. That's like saying .RJ does wheelies in to trucks in every parking lot he enters.
b) I don't buy it.
