| | The Australian: Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG vs Audi RS 6 [December 11, 2003] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) |
 | | Neither flaunts its prowess, but both are among the quickest four-doors in the world: the Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG being the modern matriarch when it comes to high-performance sedans; and the Audi RS 6, the most powerful road car the manufacturer has ever produced, and a serious threat to the Benz's rule. |
 | | In the rear-drive E55, there is a 5.439-litre supercharged V8; in the all-wheel drive RS 6, a 4.172-litre bi-turbo V8. |
 | | In its favour, the RS 6 has heated rear seats, door-window sunblinds, a manhole through to the boot and split-folding backrests none of which are found standard on the Mercedes. |
