YMMV. I drove an Octavia VRS recently, and a truly hateful experience it was too. Quite happy to pay the extra to avoid having to go through that again. Although given that the Octavia was a fairly new car with only a few 1000kms on the clock, and my RS6 is now 10 years old, I doubt the purchase price would be that different. Certainly not a factor of 4.
Anyway, cars can be toys too. The RS6 is, after all, the most practical and sensible car I own by a considerable margin. All of the others are either made of wood or lack windscreens.

FTFY. A car is for transport; by that measure, there are very few circumstances in which an RS6 is better than a Skoda Octavia, certainly not enough to justify being four times as expensive.
