I agree with everyone else. DRIVER!!!! If both cars are identical and the M6 driver launches perfect and runs threw the gears perfect, then the M6 will probably come out on top. M6s seem faster because you can choose ur gear.
But personally I like my A4. Ive always wanted a M6 but im in the process of buying another A4 car for a DD. I cant tell you how many times on the street some kid pulls up next to me at a red light, and runs right there with me until grinnnnnnnnnnnnnnddddddddd ccrrruuunnnnnnccccccccchhhhhhh. Then u hear the motor over rev and he's car upon car lenghts behind me.
But u gotta love how cocky a young punk M6 WS6 or SS owner gets when he see's ur in just a regular old Sleek Beek T/A

.003 seconds for a shift???? Did the salesman at the dealer tell you that?? I know that an auto can shift faster than a person with a manual, but it takes a longer than .003 seconds. I don't know the exact amount of time for a C6 A6, but for comparison it takes an enzo .15 seconds. Either way its still lighting fast compared to a stick.
