Thank you. I hate people make up their own math to justify the decision. I wonder if waits outside the BMW dealership. "Hey your getting ripped off buy a 550i because X drive is like having a M5 LSD." lol

These 550i guys are something else trolling the M5 forums consistently preaching about the 550i. Do they not get we don't care and we have the superior all around package?
I wonder if the 535i guys do the same thing to the 550i guys. |

Was a shame too as it would have destroyed all the competition in that time period and even today. Imagine the sound and modding potential coupled with AWD traction. They never make wise decisions. |

Ouch - The Cadillac V isn't all the bad considering the price point it sits at. I've had an auto and 6spd manual and they are fun to drive and at the end of the day, all it comes down to is how much of a smile these cars put on our faces!

Also the reason why they never brought the previous generations RS6 Sedan with the Twin Turbo V10 here to the states is that it would have been too expensive to get the emissions federalized. When I was in Germany last year doing Euro Delivery I got extremely lucky and I got to see not just 1 but 2, Audi RS6 Avants in Munich. The second one I saw I got to get close up to and take good pictures. Just seeing one in real life was awesome, especially knowing that there was a Twin Turbo V10 under that hood, but after seeing one in the flesh I wasn't that impressed afterall. The RS6 Avant that I saw was just too understated. It had a couple badges here and there, but it just looked too plain jain. I like a little extra flare over the regular chassis, but this is not to say that the 2014 RS7 and RS6 Avant don't have this flare, because I think they do. Anyways, my 2 cents based off my personal experience.

They are coming bro. If I remember correctly its a 3 or 5 year plan that has already started. They are coming. It was a motor trend interview and another magazine from a few months. The US is the biggest market for HP toys. Not sure why they wouldn't have high profit toys here years ago.
