But this is in a straight line and the overgrown passat just gets hammered. It also just isn't the understeer which is only really apparent when pushing hard but the cars are just hard to get turning plus they have a huge amount of torque steer.

For me the RS6 is a bit of don't meet your heroes. But unlike a Countach you expect a modern car to be decent!
The only thing exciting about the new RS6 for me is the design, as its a beautiful wagon, other than that I would take an E63S Wagon anyday over the RS6 even if it isn't as beautiful, but I am a tad biased .
