New RS6 Owners ...

[Finnus]

Where did you guys go? In the short time I've been on the forum, I know a number of you have received delivery of your new RS6. Yet, I haven't heard any feedback - are you too busy out enjoying your new beast????:confused: Have you just abandoned your friends on RS6.com? Have you forgotten us poor saps who have to wait months for our new car? :D Seriously, I would love to hear from new owners.:addict:

[Benman]

yeh guys, a little feed back for those of us who still
have to wait:cheers:

:addict: Amazing, you can keep the E55AMG, your M3 even your 996T2. This is the car to have, bar none!! :addict:

[Benman]

yes it is :cheers:

even the battery eating up trunk space won't stop me:D

:addict:

[BBGT2]

Batteries? we dont need to stinkin battery:D
Plexus its that good (we knew it was didnt we guys)

:addict: Yes it is that good. My wife drives an '02 M3SMG Convertable and it is not in the same league. This car goes and goes and goes. Find some1 local who has one because they woild love to show you how good it is. The seats the US get look, well not great:eye: I would get some prices for replacement in Holland or Belgium as they seem to be the best price for parts.

[BBGT2]

Plexus, thanx for the info. I am waiting for a buddy of mine to get his delivered hopefully in July they told him (diferent dealer than mine) so I can see exactly what it feels like to drive this monster.
But hearing you say what you said about it and having a M3 to compare REALLY makes me feel great.:0:
I dont know if you have seen that video of the M3 pulling away from the RS6 but I somehow cannot comprehend that at all.
I have raced my 01 S8 against the newew M3 and it was close very very close, albeit that is a sport car and the S8 is a 2 ton sedan, but watching that M3 pull away like that is something I did to my brothers 95.5 S6 and me in my chipped 94 S4 and couldnt believe that the RS6 lagged that far behind.

There's a few too many boards springing up on the net wich have RS 6 content to keep up to date with them all every day. :(

For starters there's my old stomping ground, AudiWorld which is mainly full of Americans. There's also AudiZone, which I can't say I've ever visited.

Here in the UK there was Audi-Sport.net, but that seems to have split into Tyresmoke.net and rs246.com.

And there's RS6.com of course! :D

I try to keep us with RS6.com because I think Eric's doing the board for the right reasons, Audiworld because it's my long-standing "home" forum and the others because there's a lot of UK people on there.

If I'm not careful, I won't have time for driving! :eek:

The Brit,

Thanks for the feedback. I think your byline says it all, "Can't stop smiling"!

Great pics on the muguello blue thread - that's what I've ordered but I'm stuck in the waiting game.

He he, no problem. You seem genuinely interested in the cars, and in providing information about them without a commercial or "political" (in the car enthusiast world) undertone like some other boards have.

Anyone that treks around Europe taking pictures and getting test drives of RS 6s becvause they're interested in them is OK in my book! :)

I think scoop is in trouble...

:hihi:

[Snow]

Ha ha...sure, but actually you need to count the mental age... And I think most of you RS 6 owners aren't a year over 18! (16 in the States..) :p

Arghh - maybe I'm gonna qualify as oldest (49) RS6 driver, then, when mine arrives next month. :(

[Dave]

LOL... don't worry Pete..

you'll be a long way from the oldest :cheers:

[Benman]

i doubt i'll be the youngest (as i thought scoop is 24) but
when mine arrives i'll still be 27:cheers:

22! What are you doing buying a "family" car? :0: Wow, when I was 22, I quenched my need for speed on a Honda CBR600F3 sport bike! I hit 130+ MPH on it once with bugs splattering all over my face mask as if it was raining out. Now that is one "thrill" that I never ever need to do again.

I'm a responsible 31 now :D, married 5.33 years (but who's counting?), and have a 2 1/2 year old son for the back seat. He's gonna get a helluva ride! Who needs Six Flags or Disney?

I'm 6 foot 6, so no sport bikes for me...I also love the sleeper effect of the RS 6. Plus the comfort, luxury, etc....

My other vice is sailboats :)

[Dave]

I have 3 daughters.. 6, 5 and 2...

and their mother has taught them all to say "Slow down Daddy" :bang: :incar:

Just as well I'm getting deaf at my age.. and grey!!!!! :D

[GoFastKindaGuy]

Whoa... You were allowed to lick? We had to sweep the twigs out of the wagon ruts with our ears -- just to drive up hill to school. In both directions!:roll:

[BBGT2]

I guess I also fall into the " over the hill" category, I am 36 and will be 37 when the RS6 gets here to ME.
I have been driving Audi's since day one first one was a 1975 100 LS, Ah the memories. And I think I have had every car Audi has decided to send over the ocean. Except the 20v Coupe, except that one I had them ALL. I blame (thank) my older brother he started working at Audi as a tech way back in 1976. As of yet we have a total of 4 Audi's in the family 2 1998 A8's, 2001 S8, and our family beater the "workhorse" 1986 Audi 5000 S with 346,000 miles on the clock, engine never been touched Trans. 4 times. Gotta love em.

Still waiting for the BIG DADDY aka:addict:

Bajo,

[Dave]

Wow.. that's great..
imagine driving Audi's for over 25 years.. how cool :cool2:

I bet they've improved over the years a bit.. I had a 1972 100 Coupe S for about six months.. loved it, but the wife made me sell it :mad:

Oh well.. I suppose one toy is enough for me :0:

[jconley]

I love my 95 A6Q...Not fast, but comfortable, and I put 30K miles a year on it and it runs like a charm...

Me too. Emerald Green '95 A6Q Avant going on 90,000 miles. On the age topic, I'm the same as GoFastKindaGuy and will be 56 by the time my RS6 arrives. LUV2XLR8 is my 16 year old son who has been a big influence on my ordering the car! He hates the Audi because it's a wagon, and he can't understand why anyone would buy one.
