Drove an RS6 yesterday......

Obviously a fast car but not a big fan of the paddles...I gotta admit when I got back in my S4 and ran through the gears I wouldn't trade....especially for the 30k difference in value.....

Agree... test drove one before getting the S4

Decided I didn't like a tip, and the seats in the S4 are much better.

Dang that RS6 was mean sounding tho.

I drove an RS6 afterwards....the manual made all the difference to me.

Had a tip, paddle shift or no..it's slushey.
Not even close to a BMW SMG.

It would appear to be a personal decision.

SMG is a real manual...the RS6 has a slush box

RS6 is 'old' C6 technology from early 90's with a worthy engine.
