I wouldn't expect a fwd car to fetch the same money as a 5 series. Until now the most expensive fwd sedan in the US was probably the Lexus ES350.
The Audi A6 is the equivalent of the BMW 5 series they both have 4 cyl engines so with everything else being equal you think the person looking to buy a 4 cyl car will pay $5,000 + premium because its RWD instead of FWD. I don't think so the enthusiast will but the enthusiast will step up to the N55 engine not the 4 cyl.
