So I speced a 530d xDrive Luxury line on bmw.de yesterday and it was fucking 97k euros, which is absolutely insane tbh. My question is, how much is this going to cost in full spec?!

Sooooooo much better looking than the white exterior with black wheels 540i pics that are going around. This car looks seriously good! Hmmmm, my lease is over in 2 years on my F30 so one of these might be on my list.

Agreed, current Audi, espeically the A6 is dated and least attractive in the segment. The Bmw only real competition is E class.

90-100k? Maybe with every option. Based on the outgoing 550i xdrive and other M performance models this should start in the low 70s in the US.

The rear valance and side hockey stick needs to be painted the body color. I like the interior, classy.

Difficult to call this one. The writing is starting to appear on the wall for diesels so I think it's anyone's guess whether we get this, the M550d or both.

Like all 5-series' of yesteryear (excluding the E60), it is very handsome.

You can bet the new A6 will look just like the current, with an interior design language [likely] straight out of the new A4. Regarding the E-class, it is surely handsome but does not catch the eye one bit. I've seen a few and they definitely do not get confused for the S-class, looking more like the C-class instead. I always think they are C-class' until I notice its slightly less sporty design language (compared to the C) toward the rear 3/4.

This entire class is very conservative in design, but I feel the 5er is the most desirable of them all.

First of all I said S6 not A6 and secondly the dual screen Audi interior and the ease of use just kicks BMW ass all day- and this from a 7 time and current BMW owner. If I was going big- i'd go S6. Dig that aluminum inlay stripes in the wood cabin trim. Wunderbar! Same 0-60 4.2 seconds Yes Audi designs can look boring and dated (See the current A4 and even the A/S5- pretty average and boring from the start) But The A6/S6 just went through an LCI for 2016 and the S6 for ~80k is the best large sedan in the world for the money IMO. Not the linear, over industrial boring design of the current Audis. This car will look classic for a long time. Go see a new 2017 in person, you will be VERY impressed.

S6 all day long:

Unrelated question.. do US/NA market Audi's have the sequential indicator function like on this car?

I believe yes you have to order the "Prestige" version on the S6. They come standard with the S3.
