Helpmenow Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I knew it was an RS My A6 bi turbo still runs strong, knock on wood! I thought about getting RS6 sedan. However the cost to maintain the beast is over my budget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 @ the end of the vid, I was waiting for the Audi to blow by the bike. Question... Where did the bike get "out run?" The Kawasaki seems to have been going slow when it were passed? Traffic then played interference until the bike could use its superior power to win in the end. No?

Helpmenow Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 The RS4 is just too small for me. Their nice CTS-v wagon is a monster too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kawasaki seems to have been going slow when it were passed? Traffic then played interference until the bike could use its superior power to win in the end. No? The bike was going 299 KPH when the car blew by it. An article I read estimated it hit 327 KPH. It's just entertaining to see a station wagon go faster than a bike even if it's a 150K station wagon (according to audi.ch) The RS4 is just too small for me. Their nice CTS-v wagon is a monster too Speed limits here are quite low which makes having a sports car quite painful. Maybe I should move to Germany ?

Helpmenow Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 That is a major problem with all the performance cars they now build. They want to be driven hard, hello BMW owners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I had two A6 quatros one right after the other. Had to get rid of the first after a deer convinced the chassis that it would never be the same after meeting it head on. The second one had engine issues - several condenser replacements and finally Audi did a recall for that issue. The electronics on many German cars are flimsy. They are married to the road though. The A6s had the best ride of any car I've owned. The dealer I bought mine from has an R8. That's a ridiculous car. Definitely made for the Autobahn.

Speaking of tickets, we had some unseasonably warm (and cold too btw) days here in the DC area over the last two weeks. I decided to dust off the Mustang. Wasn't driving it for 20 minutes before I got a ticket for my exhaust being too loud. Then he had the audacity to ask what setup I had. I figured that he must have been a Camaro owner.
