Are ten cylinders ever a bad thing? Only if your ride bears a V12 badge, and that’s not the case with the 2007 Audi S6, which uses its two banks of five to generate 420 horsepower and nearly 400 lb.-ft. of torque. But there’s more than raw power here, such as an updated version of Audi’s quattro all-wheel-drive system, a luxurious interior complete with sport seats wrapped in fine leather, a thumpin’ Bose surround sound system, and visual tweaks like flared wheel wells housing unique 19-inch alloys.
It’s all offered with the 2007 S6, Audi’s new sport sedan slated between the smaller S4 and the upcoming S8 flagship. Look for yours during the fall of 2006.
