RS6 vs Cayenne Turbo

Post by Taipan » Sat Jan 25, 2003 11:45 pm

Hello everyone,

As the Audi RS6 and the Porsche Cayenne Turbo are both V8 Biturbo 450hp, at similar catalog prices, coming from two great sports heritages, with very serious workshops ready to improve their factory specs to let the devil speak (imagine an RS6 MTM 600hp vs a RUF Cayenne Turbo 600hp, brrr...), I was wondering where you thought the difference would be.

And why would someone choose one over the other ?
(apart from "Audi invented Quattro" and "Porsche is a legend" ;-)

Cheers,

Eric
PS : here's the official video presentation for Cayenne with beautiful shots (in German, streaming broadband Media Player/Quicktime/Real Player).

The comparative test " a la RS6 vs E55 AMG" isn't out yet but TURBO released the Cayenne Turbo test on video.
It's in French but you may enjoy the pictures and sounds nevertheless.

PS : Turbo is the french equivalent of Top Gear TV program.
