Default A little input requested re S5 vs S6

Aside from a significant price differential, your thoughts on the two. I have driven both and the S5 is a bit more sporty but the S6 is certainly roomier. The V10 under acceleration, makes one north of 60 feel young again but the pain is in the wallet on that one. Thought it would be nice to have all three iterations of the S6 in the driveway, at least for a while, then I could change my log on to five and dime or something. But obviously, that is not a reason to pick one over the other. Perhaps someone out there has both or extensively driven them and could throw their two cents in.

Default s5 handles amazingly well from the 10-15 minutes i drove it. however the s6 was more fun

to drive as it is larger, and hauls *** esp on the high way.

it is waiting for the vanity plate" V10 FTW"

Default I would prefer the S6 from my limited time with both

Maybe I'm not ready for an Audi coupe yet.

Does automatic or manual tranny make a difference to you?
