name this audi
There is only one RS6, 2003, and it doesn't feel porky at all. ;)
It's not really all that heavy, when compared to a similar vehicle like
the VW Pheaton W12, it weighs 1560 pounds more (almost a Mk.1), with
less power.

Man, rather porcine, I'd say.
I'll take a Z06.

The new RS6 weights 4024 lbs. So actually two tons. Compare to 3839lbs
for
the '92 S4...
Cheers.
