I'm resurrecting this old thread to ask a follow up question: gas mileage.

....I got my 1962 Chevy C10 back on the road after a rebuild of it's 1965 401 Buick Nailhead and did a video of my...

In case anybody is curious, it's back up on craigslist (after the listing had expired).

Anybody have any history on this RS6 for sale at a dealership in Seattle? Is it a former member's car?

If there is anyway to spin the oil pump without turning the engine over, that would be better than cranking to prime the oil passages....at least that's the case with pushrod V8s. I admittedly don't...

I added it to the BAT comments for the listing.

Any additional feedback on the car boca rat? Since I'm going to use whatever I find as a DD, I'm willing to pay a premium for quality so plan on...

Thanks for pointing me in the direction of the build thread. Haven't watch the videos yet.

Any thoughts on this Manual-Converted RS6 for sale on Albuquerque's craigslist? It looks identical to an RS6 sold on Bring-a-Trailer nine months ago. The quick re-sale and low miles added (looks...

Can't wait to see the build thread. Sounds awesome.

The manual converted S6 left me wondering "where's the boost?" It needs a little more umph to make it interesting enough to look past the tired interior.

I agree with your aesthetic.



My thoughts exactly. I'm going to go drive the S6 this weekend since it has the advantage of being 3 hours closer than the RS6. If it passes my initial...

Looking for some feedback from the board on a couple gems I found on Portland craigslist.

First is a built 2003 C5 S6 that just popped up yesterday:...

My P-O-S 1999 Infinit I30 left me stranded with a dead battery twice yesterday (one of the consequences of letting small children play in the car without supervision). My patience with it is ending....

Thanks for the advice G2. Another RS6 owner in the PAC NW! Seems like these suckers love hills and mountains, so makes sense that they've found permanent homes in Colorado and the Northwest.

Glad to hear there is someone out there having a good experience with them as a DD. If you don't mind me asking, how many miles do you put on it in a year, and what's the current total mileage on...

I really like the rims on it. And it has all the interesting factory options like solar sun roof and sound enhanced exhaust. If it were closer, I'd go test drive it.

Hey AMDRS6, do you daily driver your manual converted RS6, or is it a weekend car?

I'm glad there is a good contingent of RS6 folks in the PNW.

I was behind a C7 S6 at a stop light yesterday. Almost ran up and asked the driver how they liked it. Then I saw an Allroad in the parking lot and was debating staking it out to ask the owner if they...

Thanks kruat. I keep learning and looking. My initial skepticism of fastguy's car has worn off. The more I learn the more I value a vehicle that has been taken care of.

Anybody have any thoughts on this Mugello Blue Pearl version with 102k miles for $16k?

Solar Sunroof, Cold Weather Package, and an MTM badge on its bonnet.

...

Looks like there are plenty of nice examples available. Shouldn't be too hard to find the right fit for my use.

Second question for the board: Some of the cars available mention that the...

It looks awesome. But at $28k I'd be buying a track car, not a commuter.

Anybody have thoughts, knowledge or comments on this manual-converted example on eBay?
...

That's what I'm talkin' 'bout Bigglezworth! GOOD BONES!

Some excellent advice, which is why I joined the forum!



I should have been a little more charitable to my lovely wife. She loves snow, she just fears my driving a fun rear-wheel-drive car in...

Yeah, I mention it because it is so painfully funny. It was 15 years old when I bought it for $1,700......and there's the kicker and the reasoning. I'll never pay $23k for a new Honda...
