Re: The battle os the sedans. (RS6 vs the others)

I would choose the Jaguar XF-R here!! Really love it! Great design and "different" to the german competitors! Also great perfomance between 80 - 120 etc!!

Second place would be the E 63 AMG and then RS6!

Re: The battle os the sedans. (RS6 vs the others)

If I could choose between these four, I would go for the Alpina - without thinking twice…

M5 because it's simply unmatched in what it does the best: Taking you to NIRVANA.

Re: The battle os the sedans. (RS6 vs the others)

I'm going to thumb my nose at the establishment here and go with the CTS-V, XFR and then RS6 in that order. Don't want an E63 or M5 this late in their lives. CTS-V gets my vote for being the first Cadillac that can truly compete with anything in its market segment and in a lot of cases, beat anything in its market segment. Love the new XFR and RS6 would need to drive those 2 to decide between them.

Re: The battle os the sedans. (RS6 vs the others)

I would go for the RS6. It's just so brutally fast, and I love the new rear design!

2. E63
3. XR-F
4. M5
5. CTS-V

Re: The battle os the sedans. (RS6 vs the others)

As a Sedan, M5 is my choice. If its a Kombi then Rs6 is my choice. I won't vote.
