2004 Sportec RS600 + 6MT + e85
Fastest RS6 in the USA
A few comments:
1: Yes, about right I'd guess for a high-mileage 2013.
2: You'll likely spend that much or more in your attempt to get your RS6 to that level of performance
3: Straw man argument. You already did American muscle, so clearly the RS6 had/has something you liked. My guess is that you thought it would be cool to have a relative "sleeper" of a not-too-pricey AWD German sedan that would kick butt and take names. My point is that a C7 S6 is a much better starting point for such a project.
4: All of that said, I understand the attraction of the RS6's low price of entry, flares and stance, and I wish you nothing but the best. I'll be watching this space for your progress.
Yes and No. I didn't buy it as a drag car...but I take everything I own to the strip at least once. I've owned 6 corvettes in my life...I'm good. I've been a Chevy guy since I was a kid. As soon as I bought my first European car, I was hooked. I made the mistake a few years ago and bought a CTS-V, thinking, hey Cadillac, quality, right? Nope. Same crap. Finally caved and bought the car I really wanted...couldn't be happier...

I bet I know what it looks like...
2013 Audi S8
are you making a claim that stock engine can handle 890awhp?
Thats a lot for being stock.
I did the import thing, American muscle thing, old school swap thing.
I dont really care for "sleeper" thing, I just want AWD turbo V8 in a car.
I realized that AWD is what I want since all I do is DD and I got annoyed with traction issues and running DR in the rain.(not to mention handling sucks on a DR)
I really think this base is really good. I mean 4k for rs6(with broken trans) how much cheaper do you guys want for a base?
