The good news is traditionally RS is cheaper than M, so it's a lot of value right there.
Funny thing to note is that it is an auto and not a dual clutch. Seems all high performance lines are ditching the DCT in favor of a traditional torque converter.
What are everyone's thoughts?

RS6 never had DCT, so it's no surprise. |
It's always had a dual clutch transmission (S-tronic). I just abbreviated 😉 |

Ah yes, I stand corrected. Got it mixed up with the S6. The question still stands, why are manufactures sticking with auto vs dual clutch? I don't have a particular bias, but I know many on here do
