I believe this is correct.

I couldn't agree more with that! It's not that the RS6 is ugly, but it is that it should be MORE than that design-wise....

Apparently there are transmission errors for the new RS6. Several owners in Germany is taking the car back to the workshop. Some say the engine might be to powerful for the transmission.

I read in EVO's transmission special insert a few months back that a regular torque convertor has an RPM limit of between 6500 and 7000 rpm. I know the M156 engine revs to over 6800 RPM and haven't heard of any transmission failures in the Mercs but, with 426 kW @ 6750 RPM - who knows, maybe that tiptronic gearbox is the the RS6's mechanical achilles heel?

Ditto.

It's groundbreakingly boring.

Audi really backed themselves into a corner with that 'shield' grille, because it seems a very difficult task to create a proportionate yet aggressive look for the RS variants.
