"Plus, it may be too sporty for a lot of the 40 and 50 year olds, who are the target buyers in this segment. "
 
hey, i resemble that remark!!!! seriously i'm one of the guys in that age range who likes the feel and compromises that a real sports sedan brings. i drive an m5 currently but my wife and i went to see the new m's after they came out and was very impressed on all fronts. if i were in the market for a new car for myself the m45 sport would be at the top of my list. i've owned a bmw 5 series since 97 but just can't see the price premium any more...not with all the useful technology now being deployed by the japanese manufacturers...that being said, there's nothing to compare to the m5, but for me the new one will just be priced out of my range.

It was published by Audi of America. I just copied it and inserted it.
 
I should add that Audi's overall YTD sales are down one half of one percent.
 
The A6 sales are up, big time (year over year).
 
Apr '04 - '05..........+38.7% (1,179 / 1,635 units)
 
YTD '04 / YTD '05..+44.8% (3,998 / 5,789 units)
 
I don't think I can post the URL, use dogpile or google.

BTW, I saw a polished black 2005 A6 sedan today pass by today. Gorgeous.

Do you know what the breakdown is for GS 300 vs. GS 430 and M35 vs. M45? Just wondering what percent of buyers are opting for the larger engine.
 
Are these sales figures available on some web site or do you have to subscribe to some service?

My Audi dealer has a fully tricked out A6 (BLACK) on their showroom floor -- front and rear spoiler, ground effects, tinted windows, special wheels, tail pipe extentions and fuzzy dice (oops, scratch the dice).
 
I run hot and cold on it -- it looks striking at first, then it looks just a teeny weeny bit like a Pontiac Grand Am circa 1997 (plastic plastic everywhere and not a drop to drink?)

Infiniti doesn't report sales breakouts within the model for the M and FX. Lexus does, however:
 
GS300 2,657
GS430 541

Wow! It seems that the 5 series is one of the 2 big winners here, up almost 16%. Apparently CR couldn't talk the 5 series down.

Maybe CR isn't as influential in some respects as you believe it is.
