Default performance rear end A6?

Are all the rear ends the same or is their a performance one. I remember the C5 had a 2.73 and a 3.15.

The first C6 (2005) had those options as well, automatics came with 2.73s as standard with 3.15s as optional (or part of the automatic's Z51 package).
2.56 is the only rear ratio for the automatics now but don't be discouraged by the tiny number, the gearing within the transmission still allows the car to move it out quite well.
