RE: A HYAUNDI Sonata???!!!
Nissan will take a 2.7T TIp, 6 speed will be closer.
The Sonata WILL challenge you in manual; more displacement and strong engine, probably lighter car. Driver will make a big difference on the outcome though.The A6 is NOT a red light racer. You have a manual so you ahve an edge over most A6 2.7T owners who could only find a TIP
Mine will hardly go under 5.5 sec to 60mph. Need to do a 1/4 mile though. But on the road, picking up anywhere from 50 to 90, I can keep up with the new 335's. Was realy close with a chipped 335 this week-end and I had an extra 250 lbs in the car. His car also weighs 200;lbs less ans he had 50 more HP.
Your car will be challenged by many from a stand still as many production cars runs 0-60 in 5.5 to 6.5 sec. key is shifting for you

Alright my friend and i performed a little experiment to aid in this discussion although it isn't a 2.7t A6.
The race is a 2003 4.2L A6 vs. a 2006 Nissan maxima auto.
(we might have borrowed the A6 from the used car dept. at audi........
)
But anyway we lined them up for a quarter mile race, (i was in the audi) his girlfriend flagged us and we took off.
The audi of course took off a lot better than the nissan which was burning the tires through second gear, we approched about the 1/8 mile and his car was about a half length behind mine, then he started to pull past mine at a pretty quick rate and just passed mine as we passed the 1/4 mile mark.
I don't know how it would play out in a scenario against the 2.7T but i would imagine the 4.2L is a little faster than the biturbo is stock.

Unless I see it, I certainly will not believe it!

According to MSN the 2.7 6MT A6 has a much better 0-60 time tho. Although, I have yet to see a UNIFORM answer as to what the projected 0-60 time for the 2.7t is. MSN says, 5.79 sec. I have heard other places that it's supposed to be 6 secs. flat. And then on auto.com it says the 0-60 is 7.1 secs.!!! ARG! lol
Either way I would rather be rolling in a stylish Audi than most other cars, so let them be faster than me!!!

Most newer sedans are pushing 300hp+ and getting a lot better fuel economy than the used too.

Are you kidding a Hyundai Sonata? I've smoked a dozen of those in Minneapolis along with those Maximas. There was only one time that a Maxima sat on my quarter panel, after that I never bothered to look in the rear view mirror anymore
