Re: S6 or S6Plus

[ccohen5@compuserve.com]

I Have ascertained that there are 2 cars, one is to be known as 
thethe 2.8T and the other as the V8 and both will be badged as A6 
models. No return of the S6 therefore. The 2.8T is as fast and 
will have slightly better acceleration because it is lighter and 
has a flatter torque curve. The options and standard equipment is 
world class. No prices yet, but around the 540 is what I am 
guessing, say about $55,000 for the T and $60,000 for the V8 fully 
loaded.
