RS6 flat out on the Autobahn

**Erik** · April 23rd, 2004, 12:46

I'm back from a visit to the Autobahn in Germany.

This picture is from an RS6 Avant (Hohenester 500 hp).

The car started to feel a little light in speeds above 300 km/h.
A jumbojet takes off at 270 km/h so I guess it's ok considering...

Which autobahn was it?Isn't it hard to find a straight way to make such high speeds like 310 km/h ? By the way it should be a great feeling when you are going with 310 km/h...

We were able to keep speeds between 250-310 quite a few times.

Taunting the devil...any videos for us? (I know you just came home, but is there hope?

)

I'm jealous. The most I ever got the RS 6 up to on the Autobahn was 274kph, then the governer kicked in.

One of my friends made 275 kph with an e34 m5. He passed you with 1kph more.

SWEET! I'm soooo jealous. I've been going back and forth about chipping my baby and decided not to then you go and post this pic! Now I'm thinking about chipping again! Ahhh!

Thanks for the pic, really impressive.

Cool!

Did you have a look as to what the MPG was at doing 196mph?

**nyrs6** · April 26th, 2004, 00:47

That is 192.2 MPH was that topped out? Because i thought Redline limited is 198-200 MPH

Anyway thats fast. I wish you can do that in the US

Kind of. It was difficult both to find an autobahn long and free enough and also for the car to go much faster.

Anyway... Congrats Ben. It shouldn't be easy to make 274 kph in a country like USA.

**Erik** · April 26th, 2004, 17:47

The E55 AMG was a bit slower.

**Gustav** · April 26th, 2004, 19:41

That is lovely

**pING** · April 27th, 2004, 20:54

Great work!
