    Lancerator ~ I had a similar first impression when I test drove my car. I remembered thinking, "That's it!!?." I guess was hoping for that just kicked in the chest feeling that my brothers modded S4 gave me. I reluctantly lined up against my brother and to my surprise I ran away from him like he was dragging Oprah. What I'm saying is...the car is a lot faster than it feels. You also have to consider the demographic the RS6 was originally intended for. It's a luxury German car built to comfortably scream down the Autobahn. I still think they did a damn good job.

    Thanks for the post! looks like my first thread got hijacked :-) Anyway I agree I felt the same way. I was hoping Id get the same rush as my friends cobra with the same ponies(of course its 2000 pounds lighter) but I must admit I was flying in that car. I had an open lane getting on the freeway and I was doing 105 before I got to merge. But I guess your right I need to look at what it was really intended for. I grew up with alot of race cars that my brother had built and these things were screamers, but just that race cars. Ive really been wanting to build a factory five GTM Supercar but Im physically a bit to tall to ride comfortably in one I think. Thats why the RS6 has always kept my interest comfort and power all wrapped up in one, plus I just really love Audi's. Im kicking around taking it for a longer drive and to my mech next week so we'll see how it goes.
