2013 Audi S6 Review

**MIG-31** · Nov 22, 2012, 12:44 PM

With the improvement in engine technology where V6s of today can outclass the V8s of yesterday and turbos giving a lot of power four pots, it’s no surprise to see that manufacturers like Audi provide S-line bodykits for their “regular” cars. You get the looks of something sporty to match the exciting performance of a relatively fast engine without having to splurge the extra cash.

I used to like Audis a lot, but nowadays I don't like them so much, the way they look, not perform. From the front they look pretty but from the rear not so much. At least to me. I would prefer a Mercedes Benz, Volvo or even a BMW to an Audi any day.

I can agree with you on some Audis. Not all. Some look like a copy and paste to a MB. I'm particularly thinking of the MB CLS vs Audi S7.

I like Audis, but like BMWs, they're too firmly sprung, and too commonly driven by twats.

Mercedes is too "old person", though. And Jaguars too showy.

Personally, I'd go for a Skoda :P

You don't have them in the USA?

It's an Eastern European car brand owned by the Volkswagen group.

On any given mainstream platform, VW generally produces cars under 4 brands:

Skoda (mainstream, sensible)
Seat (mainstream, aimed at younger buyers)
VW (upper-mainstream)
Audi (premium)

For example, the VW Golf Mk6 is essentially the same car as all of the following:
