I missed this car

[Fonzie Audi]

I've had my fair share of "fast" cars since I sold my RS6 in 2008. Honestly when I bought it back, I was a little bit concerned that I'd been a bit jaded since then, and the car wasn't going to feel quite as fast as I remembered it.

In all sincerity, there's something about this car that just feels different. I don't know if it's the way the boost comes in, etc.. but it provides a surge or rush that even my APR tuned S8 doesn't provide. The S8 is fast, but it's almost too smooth - there's no WHOAAA feeling.

I'm so glad I got this car back.. between the sound and the way it drives, I'm never letting it go again.

I vote Yay!

I approve of this statement...

In the tone of the girl in Pink Floyd's The Wall - Young Lust ' You wanna take a baaath' ...... are you saying ' its your favorite caaaar!'

This is the best.

Drove to Chicago with my brother in law a couple weekends ago. He asked "what car will you trade this one for?" I said "not sure. Maybe none. I'm sure I'll get another car someday, but I think I'll keep this one."

Well uhhhh,

Some of us never left.

Some just kept adding additional RS6s. Oh sh't, I resemble that statement.

Some left only to find dead grass on the other side of the street. And now they are back. Lol

Some let 19yr/old drive and i get my next project RS6. And now even they are back.

I see a trend.

Two days a week I commute into our north Phoenix office. I leave very early....its dark....I have the roads to myself......cruise is set at 90 then I hit town and wind my way thru the concrete ribbons.....tunes are playing and the world spins perfectly. Ahhhhh how sweet it is

And I resemble THAT remark! And yes, going to try to keep this one at home for a long time.

that is true, totally true, i feel the same way about my C6 RS6, it is fast but all that smoothness and how it does all too well it's just too much, too clinical with no personal touch i guess. However, on the other side, i don't think is that bad pushing the car to its limits and not worrying about the gearbox :).

But i would buy again another C5 in a blink if a proper one will come up for sale around here ;) .

This about sums up why I've got no interest in anything past the B5/C5/D2 Audis.

Now they're more power, but more weight.

Why have 600 HP if it doesn't scare you a little and you actually have to pay attention to drive it?

Noise cancelling speakers in the seats. No thanks.
