New member - picked up a 2007 S6

[andrewket]

Hello all- new member to rs6.com. I'm active on a few other forums, but found rs6.com from a cross-post. I picked up an 2007 S6 two weeks ago this weekend. I'm at 600 miles so I haven't had the chance to really see what the car can do yet. Pictures follow - click on the thumbnails for higher resolution.

I was able to snap some pictures of the S6 with the S4 before I traded it in. You can also see the wife's all-road in the background which is about to be traded on a new BMW X3.

Cheers,
Andrew

The new S6 has the best seats of any sport sedan in my opinion.

[Ruergard]

Nice, very nice!

Looks stunning! Those seats are as absent wrote sooo comfy! :D

And welcome to the board! :)

[AndyBG]

[SoCal]

Welcome and contratulations on your latest purchase. :bye:

You've got a great car; looks nice in silver with carbon. Thank you for posting all the pics.

We all look forward to hearing your driving impressions as you get used to the S6, break it in and learn its personality, especially in comparison to some of the other great cars you've owned. What do you like? What would you change? I've no doubt the engine is great, having test driven the new S6 myself recently. How do you find the ride quality and steering control to be in daily driving?

Thanks for posting! :burnout:

[Finalmix]

Those daytime running front LEDs are sick! I saw one on the road the other day, pretty smooth.

One of my associates flagged down an S6 like yours on I94 in Florida and got the guy to agree to give me a ride. We linked up and I took a spin. Fabulous ride. Congratulations! Welcome to RS6.com.

[S6LANA]

Beautiful taste in cars Andrew. Good luck with her and like the others, I can't wait to hear your impressions.

Hey Gofast, How do you like the 911 overall when compared to the RS6? I was thinking of maybe trading the RS for a 911 while I wait for the new RS6 to come.

[Niklas]

you just need to put on the 19" Gallardo rims and its complete !!

[Lateknight]

Just one question.... X3 ?? :nono:
