I know that it doesn't have two very angry boys under the hood to push him a little bit harder, but to my knowledge every I6 3.0L engine is limited at 250 km/h... Ok, here we're talking about "T" version, maybe that explains it... If that's so, then i didn't know for that...

If I recall correctly, BMw with AWD has slightly lower topspeed than RWD BMW.

One win for the BMW, one for the Audi. Seems fair
