yes, the 2.7T. From the Audi site:

"When you marry each cylinder bank to two high-boost turbochargers, performance becomes more than just an option. It's a visceral thrill you have to experience to fully appreciate. The A6 2.7 T was made to conquer the road. With its 30-valve 250 hp biturbo V6 linked to a six-speed manual transmission, this sporting sedan takes off from 0-60 in six seconds flat."

That about sums it up. I drove up to northern Maine a couple months ago, then across W. Maine to Quebec City... on roads like car commercials use. This was after only owning it for a month or so, so I figured it was time to see what she had... and you are right, she has a LOT! Thank goodness no speeding tickets, or, better yet, thank goodness no night in jail as I think that would have been required. Than again, on the highway from QC south to Montreal, it seemed the regular speed was around 80mph, so I got behind a guy in his Boxster with his radar detector visible, and let's just say we made a 3 hour drive in about 100 minutes. Here in CT, I take it pretty easy tooling around town, though once in a while (esp getting onto the highway), I try to emulate that 0-60 stat above... Fun, Fun car.

It is a great car- my father is on his second 2.7T

I'm still trying to figure out the best way I can steal his engine and drop it into my car without getting caught ; )
