    Thumbs up Pictures of the RS6 on the production line

    Found some pictures from the RS6 production line.


    During running-in test. Notice the paint, stuning.


    Brake assembly.


    During quality check in the light tunnel.


    Assembling the front bumper.


    During body leakage test.


    Suspension check on the test line.


    Assembling the drive train.

    Regards

    Nice pictures... Now we know that they treat the RS 6's really gentle. At least it looks like they do. But those pictures look a bit "staged", don't they?

    Well, I don't think they're snapshots if I say so.
    But I'm disappointed on the workers clothing - since I've seen what the guys over at the Bentley factory is wearing everything else is only budget.


    Workers clothing over at the Rolls-Royce factory.

    Learned through this forum that all US/CDN release RS6's came with cross drilled rotors as stock while only the RS6+ came with them everywhere else in the world...
    '02 S6 Avant Silver - Pokey | Carbon Black/Ebony RS6 w/ stuff - darn quick | '03 Daytona Grey/Ebony RS6 w/ more stuff - quicker yet | '91 NSX CDN issue with 6spd & BBSC - quicker yet and then some | '87 Buick GNX OEM clone w/ lots of stuff - quickest hands down

    There's a lot of "hidden stuff" in these old threads. Spent an hour or two digging out special info and pics back then.
