Vs Autobild: E63 vs RS6 vs XFR and M5

[VroomVroom]

Well done Audi!

Well done all cars and for the M5 to still be up there with the new boys is amazing!

I just love how so many people knock Audi down when they come first in a comparison, can't see why they just can't say "well done"..

 

[Potential]

I've got a feeling the F10 M5 is going to make a mockery of this group. It's just a feeling but previous experience suggests I might be right as well. Long live the king!!!

 

[m-power]

The M5 is still a masterpiece after 5 years. Probably none of the others will be that good at this age...

I love the unique M5 V10 sound, much sexier than the other cars' V8s... Really hope BMW keeps the V10 in the upcoming F10 M5...

 

[NarutoRamen]

LOL, it's annoying how they mention "fuel consumption" as an issue on these cars. Really? I don't think a guy who is after good MPG figures EVER going to look at one of these cars.

RS6 has a V10 and the M5 sounds like a diesel so yes it is
quite unique

Spoken like someone who hasn't heard the M V10 sing over 5000rpm

When the M5 was released, fuel consumption was one of the things it was most bashed for... today it is the most efficient in the group.

I don't speak If I dont speak of reality.
Actually I have heard the M6 from 0 rpms to the very close to the limit..
but when the car is parked but still running it sounds like a diesel..
but is not only the M6/M5 that sounds like a tractor..

That is some nice diesel you have up in Norway

 

[Centurion]

That is some nice diesel you have up in Norway

Must be lack of ample oxygen up there in the fjords or Norwegian M5 owners feeding their cars diesel.

Actually Dasilva isnt completly wrong , at idling it does sound almost like a diesel, like a ticking sound or something. My babybimmer sound the same at idling but once you hit the throttle, the difference is gigantic. But cars are meant to be driven so who cares if it sounds weird when you arent driving, its just a bad excuse for not choosing a M5

OMG!! Ree, I think the E63 farted, listen 10 seconds in the Mercedes video

 

[Tumbo]

It feels good to be an Audi fan these days RS6 is the dream-monster for sure. It has won so many tests, and here we go again. In your face, haters!

 

[klier]

^ Hahaha

All I say is be VERY happy BMW doesn't do Mark II Porsche style!!!!
M5 has been the same car for many years now, no need to upgrade it against the much newer RS6 or E63


Just for VroomVroom though:

Well Done Audi.

I´m really anxious to see how the new M5 comes out. When I first saw the E60 M5, even when I didn´t like too much the current E60, I thought it was the nicest car I had ever seen, specially because of the front. And the engine was pretty impresive, the very first V10, the very first car on that segment to engage 500 hp.

I wonder what is going to happen if the F10 M5 gets a TT V10...

 

[klier]

^ Hell will happen. And the M5 will be the first car in segment going over 600 hp, then.

I wonder what would happen if Audi releases their cars at the same time that the competence. I don´t think there is something to be pround of about the RS6 when it is a car that went on sale almost 5 years later than the M5.

See not that hard

 

[braaf]

At least the M5 is a BMW R&D engine. Lambo V10 anyone?
