All 3 are based on the new 4.0TFSI (twin turbo). It also has some cylinder deactivation system to run on 4 cylinders.

S6 - 420bhp, 405 lb-ft, 0-60 in 4.8 secs, 24mpg (US), 1895kg, 7 speed S-tronic
S7- 420bhp, 405 lb-ft, 0-60 in 4.9 secs, 24mpg (US), weight unavailable. 7 speed S-tronic
S8 - 520bhp, 479 lb-ft, 0-60 in 4.2 secs, 23mpg (US), 1975kg, 8 speed tiptronic

I like 2 out of 3. Love the new S6 and S8, but that S7 is ugly. Well, the front are rear are okay but that side profile is really bad. I've seen it on the road and it really is that bad. I'm glad to see Audi moving to the 4.0TFSI V8s and can't wait to see people getting the S6 up to 520bhp like the S8!

I'm sorry, but this is one of the goofiest car ad pics ever.

Given their Lego house and stupid yard art, I'd expect that from them.

Haha, ya that's what I was thinking when I saw that photo!

The S7 doesn't look anything like that stupid honda. Don't insult a nice car like that >_>

I enjoyed the ride and comfort of the A6, I'd love to test drive the S6

Amazing interior as always, and I'm happy with the motor choice. The exteriors are a little bland though.

This sentence I'm typing right now is more exciting than all 3 of those put together.

Their s-line has become more and more mundane over the years while the RS has become more coveted. Not even from a performance standpoint, but their s-line of cars is really not much different from their s-line sport package, with the exception of the exhaust quads.

The A7/S7 is a waste. The side profile really is terrible
