To be honest it shouldn't be comparing itself to the A6... it should be comparing itself to an S6. Top "sport version" of Ford Full Size vs. Top of Audi's.. the A6 is not a sports car its a luxury car. Not meant to race... i guess they got scared of trying it out against its actual Audi counterpart ... lol

One nice feature of the Ecoboost...it can kick out all that power on regular gas...
Agree...as far as Ford has come over the past few years...their cars are simply, not nearly as refined, as an Audi. But their NAV systems are extremely hard to beat...weather, traffic, sports scores, fuel prices, movie times, etc etc etc.... Wish we had some of that on our S4's...

The new Taurus is morbidly obese and needs to go on a diet. If they would shrink it down to the Ford Fusion size, it would be a much nicer choice. They should really make a Ford Fusion AWD with a DSG type transmission, good suspension & brakes with the V6 ecoboost. Then they would have something interesting. The Ford Fusion is closer to the size to the S4 (but the Fusion is still 5 inches longer). The current four door Fords cannot equal the performance/MPG of the S4.
